    Cell comments and displaying info when hovering the cursor over a cell

    I'm currently working on a spreadsheet that requires the used of codes and abbreviations, using initial instead of people's names is one of the examples from the spreadsheet, my current fix is to have a comment attached to the column header with a large list of the abbreviations and their meaning, which is proving difficult as I add more to it.

    I was wondering if there was a way to have the relevant meaning to the abbreviation show when the cursor is moved over the cell?

    Cheers

    Why not just put peoples' names in the cells so you don't need the cipher key?
