SreeJonn -

Here is an example for setting the ToolTip FormatString of the X-axis to 4 digitis, scientific notation.  This code piece is in C#, but the expression is nearly the same syntax in VB.

//turn on tooltips
scatterPlot1.ToolTipsEnabled = true;
//4 digit scientific notation
scatterPlot1.ToolTipXFormat = new FormatString(FormatStringMode.Numeric, "e4");

For the y-axis, the method is scatterPlot.ToolTipYFormat.  For information in regards to the FormatString Class format options, you can consult the 'NumberFormatInfo Class' in the .NET Framework Class Library help.

I hope this helps in your application development.  Have a great day!
