Hi
Windows has a little box that pops up where ever you put the mouse cursor telling you what you are hovering over and preventing you from seeing it. In Excel it typically says something like "chart area". Is there any way of getting rid of it because it is a real nuisance?

Hello Ed,
this works for chart area. In Excel 2007 goes like this...
Excel Office button, Excel options, Advanced, Display... and uncheck "Show chart element on hover".
Maybe this can resolve part of your problem.
