Default displaying objects

My question is this. Is it possible to display an object in Excel when you
scroll over a certain word or cell. Alot similar to that of the comments,
where you can hide or see comments, when you scroll over a specified cell. I
want to try and add pictures to my reports so that when people scroll through
the report they can see images pop up so that they can understand what i am
talking about. If this is possible can someone please help me.

You can place a picture in a comment. It will then appear on mouse-over.
