Use Display a System Tray Icon in VC++ and use a new flag (available where _WIN32_IE >= 0x0500), NIF_INFO, which lets you display a balloon tip. The text goes in szInfo and the message in szInfoTitle.

Actually I used visual c++6.0, so It's not available _WIN32_IE>=0x0500 in ' Shellapi.h' file, that header file available structure is :
typedef struct _NOTIFYICONDATAA {
DWORD cbSize;
HWND hWnd;
UINT uID;
UINT uFlags;
UINT uCallbackMessage;
HICON hIcon;
CHAR szTip[64];
} NOTIFYICONDATAA, *PNOTIFYICONDATAA;

What should I do?

Upgrade yourself probably. Or you can design a window which looks like balloon
