So in the Office help files certain key words or phrases are in a different
color font, and if you click the word or phrase then additional text appears
that provides more detailed info on whatever it was you clicked - I'm
wondering, can you do the same thing in Word?

Alternate option:
This is really a feature that belongs to webpages written in HTML, so
it's a bit of a kludge to make Word do it. However, see the tutorial here:
