Data Validation Message box :: want to relocate

[DYork]

Prev : 2003 Now : 2010 ...
I use the Data Validation Message box that pops up when you sit on a cell, to deliver data entry user instructions ... But often the popup box would cover / overlay other nearby data, making point-and-click navigation to those covered cells difficult, at best. When using the Office Assistant (yeah, the ‘paper clip’ ), my Message comments were delivered in the Assistant’s message balloon. He/it was fairly stationery and 'pinned' wherever the user had last placed him. (Most of my users placed him towards the top of the screen, in the title bar and /or menu area.)
>>> NEED A VIABLE REPLACEMENT !! <<<

You can move the popup by clicking and dragging. Once moved it will stay put.

I can not believe it was that simple!
I know I gave a half hearted attempt at draggin' at one point, but spent the rest of the time searching the MS Knowledge base and elsewhere. Plenty of statements re: no more Assistant, but no discussion about the replacement functionality.
THANK YOU!!
