Absolutly correct ... I won't be using the applet viewer to run the
deployed applet.

Anyway, I'm told by reliable sources that JBuilder doesn't use the appletviewer.

     You might try posting the the Sun forums.  The appletviewer has
     nothing
     to do with JBuilder.

However, I may want to debug a custom component where I override
the standard tooltips stuff and make my own tooltips stuff.  And then
I'll be using whatever JBuilder uses to run the applet as I go through
the edit-run-debug cycle.  And for that reason I need to know that
when I'm running my applet and not seeing tooltips, it isn't my fault.

I'm just trying to get my ducks lined up so that I don't chase ghosts.
