When sending Word documents electronically, there may be some advantage to providing Screen Tips. Screen Tips are when you "hover" over a word or phrase and a Tip pops up.
These are very simple to setup, just follow these steps:
1) Select the word or phrase you wish to add the Tip
2) Right-click and choose Hyperlink
3) Click "Screen Tip"
4) In the pop-up window, simply type the text (tip) you wish to appear
5) Click "OK"
6) Type a Name for the Tip in the "Address" box and click "OK"
To test the Screen Tip, simply hover your mouse and you should see the Tip.

How do I get rid of "hit Ctrl+Click" to go there, since it is just a screen tip and not a hyperlink?
ReplyDeleteHi Pete,
DeleteSince, in essence, the Screen Tip is a hyperlink (and created using the hyperlink function within Word) it will always show the default "CTRL + CLICK" below the text you entered as the Screen Tip.
