Hi,
first of all I like to state that I am very impressed with the controls like a lot of people using them I find them to be the best.
Now to the matter in hand,
I was wondering if there is a way to display the validation errors(messages) in a form a tooltip.
Secondly if there is way the validationsummary can be added as a tooltip?
Thank you very much

Hello Chris,
Yes, it is possible to use a RadToolTip for displaying a ValidationSummary. In order to achieve this you must go through the following steps:
1. Add a ValidationSummary object to your RadToolTip.
2. Write a javascript function to check the validity (the easiest way to do this is by checking the display of the ValidationSummary object - if it is "none", there are not invalid values) and cancel the RadToolTip pop-up if everything is correct.
3. Initialize the "OnClientBeforeShow" property of the ToolTip with this function.
A demonstration of this approach can be found here.

Is there anyway to highlight the fields with a red border as well as show the tooltip?

Yes, you can achieve this by using standard javascript - in the OnClientShow event of the RadToolTip reference the textboxes and change their color, e.g as shown below:
$get("TextBox1").style.borderColor = "Red";
