    Is it possible to add a mouseover tooltip to a cell?

    Is it possible to add a mouseover tooltip to a cell? It can't be as a comment. I don't want a triangle in the cell. I just want the normal mouseover tooltip. Thank you in advance.

    Have a look at the examples provided in the attached workbook. I have included 2 versions, one as a pure mouseover and the other as a select cell mouseover.

    I can't download files at work and I don't have excel at home. Could you provide the instructions for the pure mouseover? Thank you for your help.

    AussieBear's two methods:

    Insert/Hyperlink/Screentip
    Data/Validation/Input message

    Thank you! Data Validation worked. The hyperlink screentip required that I have a hyperlink or something entered. It would accept just a screentip.
