Default How to get a popup when hovering over text

Hi Doug,

Thanks for your response.

The only "Comment" I can find is for document review. However, this doesn't
work the way we want it to. Is there another type of "comment" that I have
not discovered yet, that does what we want? I.e. pop up a window or bubble
automatically when the end user hovers over a piece of text? Somewhat like
tooltips that pop-up (when enabled) when the cursor hovers over an icon in
the ribbon (where no mouse click is required).

Thanks in advance for any further help.

I want to produce a WORD document to distribute to end users when they have
problems. The document will look like a FORM. To the right of many of
the
fields, I want to include the text string "Help?" and if the user hovers
the
cursor over this text string, I want to make a small window (or text
bubble)
pop-up automatically (no click) in which I can supply details on how to
complete that field in the form.

How do I make a window/bubble automatically appear?
