Debug Excel 2003
 
I have just upgraded to Excel 2003 and when I use the debugger to "step
through" a program, I can no longer hover over variables to see their
values - is there an option to turn this on?

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for this, but my option was already ticked.
I have tried various approaches, but I cannot get the thing to work at tun
time. Any more ideas? - It really is a pain not being able to see the values
of variables - Im currently adding a watch, but that is not as easy.

In VBA, go to the Tools menu, choose Options, then the Editor
tab. There, ensure that "Auto Data Tips" is checked.
