Default How i can add description tail to cursor when it goes on to a spe.

How i can add a description tail to a cell when i move cursor to that
specific cell. For example if i move cursor to cell A2, it should give a
description tail "add value from code 1202"

thanks

I think you want something similar to the ScreenTip you get when you
highlight a button on the toolbar. Excel only offers ScreenTips for
hyperlinks only. You will have to make the cell into a hyperlink and then
click on ScreenTip in the top-right corner. This works with formulas.

It might be better to use a comment. Right click a cell and click "insert
comment". Comments can be set to show when you move the pointer over the
cell, or they can be set to always show. It might not look the same, but I
don't know if that would even be a problem.

Maybe you could use Data|Validation and use any value, but put a nice message in
the "input message" tab.

(although I don't know what a description tail is.)
