Here is my code:
// Initialize global strings
1. TCHAR buffer
2. LoadString(hInstance, IDS_APP_TITLE, szTitle, MAX_LOADSTRING);
3. LoadString(hInstance, IDC_WINDOWSTRINGCAPTURE, szWindowClass, MAX_LOADSTRING);

When I place the cursor after "LoadString(" at line 2 I get the following tooltip text (with syntax colors activated):

TCHAR buffer LoadString(hInstance, IDS_APP_TITLE, szTitle, MAX_LOADSTRING)

What sort of tooltip are you seeing? For a parameter info tooltip I am seeing this:

No, that's wrong ;) You added a semi-colon after "TCHAR buffer"...

I'm seeing exactly the text I pasted. If I could find an "upload image" button somewhere, I would post my screen dump too :P

I added the semi-colon since complaining VA is confused by invalid code is unfair

VA tries its best with code that does not compile (you are still editing it), but there are limits, and missing semi-colons is a good way to confuse VA's parser.
