Generally, I like tooltips but when I'm reviewing the nightly jobs (Sql Server Agent > Jobs > View History) I find that they obsure the very status line I want to read! After a couple of months of this it's getting annoying. Is there a keyboard shortcut, or other approach, that can be used to temporarily (permanently?) disable ToolTips?
TIA,

Right-click in the grey area next to your icons, point to Customize and then de-select the "Show Screen Tips on Toolbars".
If this answers your question, make sure to mark it "answered" so others can find it quickly.

I couldn't get it to work for me when I was looing at the results of the nightly job runs. Can you please clarify which icons you were referring to and where exactly in SSMS I can find them?
TIA,

|||Sure -Open SSMS and look for any grey area next to the icons in the icon bar at the top. Right-click in that grey area, and then select "Customize" from the menu that appears. You'll see the option to select towards the bottom of the panel that shows up.
