Default Popup message when clicking on a cell

Hi

I have received a sheet , in which I have discovered some unknown setup.
When I click on/select a specific cell, a yellow message pops up and remains
visible as long as the cell is selected.
It is NOT a comment, but what it is, I do not know.

Can anyone help me?

Ebbe

How?

As fare as I can see it is only possible to add or remove validation to a
cell.
I don't find any place to enter a message, to be displayed.

Hi Ebbe,

When you click Data Validation you should have 3 tabs, Settings, Input
Message, Error Alert. Or it does in my version 2002.

With cell selected Data Validation Clear all OK
