Popup text for object

I am using Excel 2003. I would really appreciate your help and knowledge if you could tell how to create a popup text box for an object in Excel. This pop up will close when you click another object or cell in the spreadsheet.
Thanks

Hi leem,
What do you have in mind for initiating the message box, and what should the message say?

or....do you want a simple flyout comment box so that when you hover your mouse over the cell, you see the comment box?

Is it OK to use VBA for this?

If so, it can be done fairly easy. You can assign a macro to show a userform with the information that you requested for each circle on your map.

Enable Macros, Click on any of the circles in Va map.

Ask any questions about the how to part, if you don't see how it was done.

To see the macros/code, Alt+F11 opens the VBA editor window...in there you can create the userforms, and add the code. Right click on your circle lables and assign a macro to make the appropriate userform show when clicked.

Here is another option, but the text formatting is kind of funky and very limited....
