How do I get a message to pop up when the user moves the mouse over the cell?
Ron Coderre - 11 Mar 2008 16:35 GMT
Insert a comment in the cell

Select the cell
From the Excel Main Menu:
<insert><comment>

Note: to subsequently edit the comment, use the same command.

Is that something you can work with?

Maybe you could use:

Insert|Comment
(xl2003 menu system)

> How do I get a message to pop up when the user moves the mouse over the cell?

Insert - Comment
Type in your message and click outside of the comment text box.  A red
triangle should appear in the upper right corner of the cell to allert you to
the fact that a comment has been added to that cell.  
Mouse over to view the comment.
