Default How do I make a definition box float over a word?

I'm a 6th gr. teacher. I would like a box with a definition in it to float
over a word that I want my students to know when they put the cursor over it.
Can I use Word 2003 to do this? How can it be done? Thanks.

Hi rimuller

There's no straight forward way to do this in Word. However, you'll find
some workarounds near the top of the page at

Hope this helps.
