Using Office Assistant to display MY message

B

Brent

Hello!

Someone sent me a spreadsheet and when I click certain
cells, the office assistant pops up with information
specific to the spreadsheet...much like the text you
would see in a comment box, although comments are not
used in the spreadsheet. Very bazaar! I didn't know it
was possible to have your own text display through the
office assistant...

How do you do it?????? Thanks!!!

Is it the Office Assistant or just a message that pops up?

If so, it could be Data>Validation>InputMessage.

With one of these cells selected go to Data>Validation and see what's up.

Gord,

You are the man! I noticed that (in at least Office
2003) whatever message was in the
Data>Validation>InputMessage was also displyed by the
Assistant.

Thanks! Thanks!
