This function is not available in Word. The nearest you could get would
probably be a macrobutton field that would run a macro to pop up a message
eg
{Macrobutton Message Click Here}
to run the macro
Sub Message()
Dim orng As Range
Set orng = Selection.Range
MsgBox "This is a message"
orng.Fields.Add Selection.Range, wdFieldMacroButton, "Message Click Here",
False
End Sub
'Click Here' would be the word(s) you wish to associate with the macro. You
would however have to double click the field to get the response.
You could use dropdown fields in protected forms, but frankly they get in
the way of ordinary document production.
What you need for this type of action (a rollover) is an html editor and the
resulting document would be viewed in a browser.
