Is it possible to add a tooltip to a specific word or sentence?

Hi All

Don't know if this is possible, but I create a word doc which can inform the
user that 'x' amount of people have not attended a club and I'd ideally like
the ability to add a tooltip to the text line so that the user can mouse
over it and see a list of the people that make up this number.

I can't list the people because this will make my doc messy so if I could
still show something like '12 People did not attend' and if the user moves
their mouse over this text it shows them the 12 people's names in a tooltip
then this would be great!

Is it possible??

The closest you can come, I think, is to bookmark the word or phrase, make the
word or phrase into a hyperlink pointing to the bookmark (so that following the
link goes nowhere), and assign your mouseover text to the hyperlink's tooltip.

Another possibility is to add the information as a Comment
