Mitendra,
Look for tooltip in MSDN or Google,

You get a bunch of information and it is easy to implement.

For a Start
Drag a Tooltipcontrol from the toolbox to your form.
Then you can enter in every control a tooltip text.

Unfortunately this is very difficult. You'd need to hook into all processes
and inject code into memory spaces, which isn't possible in any .NET
language.

You can extract the text from textboxes however.

If you were to do any word on the screen, then you'd need to take a picture
of the area under the mouse cursor and perfrom some sort of Character
Recognition (unreliable).

You can get text text of the control under the mouse pointer by
p/invoking:

'GetCursorPos'
'GetClassName'
'SendMessage'
'WM_GETTEXT'
'WM_GETTEXTLENGTH'
