    Interactive word search

    Hi all, hope you are all good and safe given the circumstances. I wanted to obtain your help to know if what I am trying to do can actually be done in Excel.
    I'm trying to create a word search in excel, but in addition I would like that when a word is found for a pop up or a message to appear. The idea is that this pop up or message contains information about that specific word.
    I had tried to see if probably by selecting a range then on a cell the word can be found and have another formula that based on the word returns a message but I don't know if this is possible.
    I have already my word search done, but I'm struggling with the pop up message and how to make it appear based on the word found. Is this possible? Thanks for the help!

    Hi Nankw83! thanks for your reply. The idea is to make a word puzzle search, I'm sorry I did not explained myself correctly. Below is the image I am trying to achieve. I want that whenever a range of cells is selected with the word a message to appear. Is this possible? Thanks!
