Default Text Box hide & unhinde with mouse?

I am not able to create hyperlink in the Text Box. <<

As indicated in my response to your other thread, I don't think we can insert hyperlink to a **textbox**. Under this thread, I mentioned about drawing a **rectangle** inside a cell via the drawing toolbar (viewtoolbarsdrawing). In my opinion, a textbox is not the same as a rectangle. Experts, please feel free to correct me if I am wrong.

You may want to try mama's solution which is simpler. If you want to draw a rectangle and still not sure how, post back or search the net.

Good luck!

Hi,

I hope I understand the OP correctly but not entirely sure what he/she really wants.

I would appreciate your comments on my idea.

1. Draw a rectangle inside a cell (using the drawing toolbar).
2. Right click on the rectangle, then Format AutoShape to remove the lines (colors and lines tab) to get the "hidden" effect.
3. Right click on the rectangle to insert hyperlink, link to the same worksheet.
4. Click on ScreenTip and type in text.

The text will not be seen unless "mouse-over" happens.

Just a thought. Have I missed anything? If I am totally off, have a good laugh.

Cannot be done in Excel with just a 'mouse-over'. Could be done with VBA
(macro) using Worksheet_SelectionChange() event. You would have to click on
a particular cell to make it come out (become visible).
