Additional description to Word 2010

[jarek_seweryn]

I recently came across a Word file that contains the functionality you have attached. When you hover the mouse over a word, additional text appears in a cloud. I was wondering how this was done. It is not a comment, it looks more like an inserted field, just what kind? Any suggestions on how to do this and can it be done in Word 2010?

To display the field code: File | Options | Advanced | Show document content | Show field code instead of their values

That is an AutoTextList field . Something similar can be done with the Hyperlink field.
