Hello and thanks for any help in advance.

I'm on Windows XP, Office 2003.

I've been tasked to add "bubble help" to some Excel cells so when users
"hover" over the cell, they get some written instructions. The only tool I'm
aware of to do this is to make a hyperlink of the cell and use the Screen Tip
feature. The problem I'm encountering is the Screen Tip feature allows for a
very small number of characters and I need more space. Any way to increase
that? Or any other method of including "hover/bubble" help in Excel. Please
advise with thanks!
