Tool tips are .NET control properties. Iron Speed Designer places them in your application’s ASPX pages.
For button controls, there is a "Tool tip" field on the Property Sheet.

Not all .NET controls have a ToolTip property, and the property mechanism will pass anything you enter through to the ASPX page, whether it makes sense or not. If the underlying control supports the property (ToolTip), then it will function properly. If not, then it's likely you'll get an ‘Internal Server Error’. For example, .NET literal controls don't have a ToolTip property, so you'll get an Internal Server Error when displaying a page containing a literal with a ToolTip properly.
These .NET controls are known not to support tool tips:

The ToolTip property is a .NET property defined at the WebControls level, which means that many controls support them. See:
