You just killed me with that huge formula! I've never seen a formula like this! Is a monstrosity.
Have you consider using VBA?
Is not possible in Excel to assign a cell value to an object without VBA code. But, maybe I'm wrong!
Here is an example to spell numbers with VBA function. It can be used to became a comment content for current cell as event in your worksheet

I worked on the solution with VBA
The code for worksheet 2, as selectionChange event, is working for the B2:G4 range.
Sorry for off-topic interjection:
Although there is no official rule regarding this behaviour, we request that wherever possible both the question AND the answer be provided in substantive detail here within the thread. An attached workbook is an excellent aid for posing a question and offering a solution, but solely doing that with no in thread explanation makes it difficult for researchers to understand or consider the Q & A of this thread without downloading what may be a pointless doc to them, if they can do that at all. Doing that also hides the content from search engines so others may never benefit from this.
I'm sure you understand, and we look forward to seeing you post your formulas/macros in your posts for the searching benefit of all.

Hello tanasedn: your solution is just what the doctor ordered and works fine thank you.
The reason why I used the formula is because I am not really good with VBA and that formula was the only one I could find without using VBA.
Now all I have to figure out how to make the window showing the text bigger so the whole text is visible (and a few other things :-)
Good Day FDibbins
I just spend 30 minutes trying to put the cross link to mrexcel in here but I fail.
I cannot find any FAQ on how to do this so I give up
