Use PRE tags to format code part from next time. It makes the question readable.

There are two ways as far as I can tell.

The first being adding member variables for each radio button. This is possible since they have different ID's.

m_clttcToolTip.AddTool(GetDlgItem(IDC_BT_1), "Setting tooltip for radio1");
m_clttcToolTip.AddTool(GetDlgItem(IDC_BT_2), "Setting tooltip for radio2");

or you could use their rectangles instead

CRect rc1;
GetDlgItem(IDC_BT_1)->GetWindowRect(&rc1);
ScreentToClient(rc1);
m_clttcToolTip.AddTool(this, "Setting tooltip for radio1", &rc1);
