Default On MouseOver for Cells/Sheets

There aren't any exposed mouse-related events for cells or sheets.

Want to create a floating message type box, to give the user of a
sheet some help when they
move the mouse over an item, or value or other data type.


You could use comments (Insert | Comment) if you need cell-based tooltips.
If you're after something more extravagant, you could use TextBoxes or other
ActiveX controls, which do expose mouse events.
