Mouseover text box popup

[GregWood]

Hi there,

I have a number of images (icons) on a excel worksheet. What I'm looking for is when a person's mouse passes over the image a text box pops up to give the person a brief description of the image. When the mouse move off the image the textbox should disappear. The image already has a macro assigned to it, which when the person clicks on the image it opens another worksheet.

I'm new to macros and I'm completely stuck. Please could someone assist with some code and also a description of how to implement the code.

Thanks

Actually, I got curious and tried the Chart one. I like its behavior better. I did find tip #2 from Mojave at the bottom of the page critical to getting it to work. The CommandButton one had some quirks to when the text box would appear and disappear. The Chart one seems to have behavior exactly like what you would expect from a tooltip. Good luck! Let me know if you get stuck trying to implement either of these.

Thank I'll give it a bash. If I get stuck I may need your assistance again.

Got it working. Thanks for all the help. Tried them both and found the chart one to be the best.
