Insert a Pop Up window in MS Word

Word does not provide any built in "pop-up" feature as such, that results in a small window containing information when you click on a word or a link. The next best solution n Word is the ScreenTip feature, which displays a small ToolTip-like "hint" when you hover the mouse pointer over a hyperlink.

ScreenTips can be created as follows:

  1. Click your mouse on the Insert Hyperlink tool on the toolbar, or choose Hyperlink from the Insert menu. Word displays the Insert Hyperlink dialog box.
  2. Click on the ScreenTip button. Word displays the Set Hyperlink ScreenTip dialog box.
  3. In the ScreenTip Text Box enter the text you want to use for your ScreenTip.
  4. Click your mouse on OK to close the dialog box.
  5. Set any other hyperlink values, as desired.
  6. When completed, click on OK.
