Default COMMENT question . . . kinda. :)

Situation: Text from another sheet is pulled into a cell. Destination cell
is too small for entered text to fit. Can't make cell larger. No real
estate left on the sheet.

I tried to format destination cell for wrap text, but that didn't work.
Entered text all goes into 1 line, "under", or hidden into next cell in next
column.

So, "like this" would be . . .

|like th|

How do I make a text window, similar to a comment window, but have the
actual text from the cell appear when cursor hovers over the cell?

Note: I'm asking for a comment window that reflects the data pulled into the
cell from another sheet. Not how to make a comment window with "set" text.
The text will vary, and can change as the program is run.

I just want it to be easy for the customer to see the full text line when
they need to.
