Access "description" fields should be shown as "help bubbles"

When building a table in Design View the "description" field content is
displayed on the status bar. Nobody in going to see it there, especially new
users to the application. Isn't it frustrating? As I'm writing this the
mouse has moved into the message field and the "help bubble" keeps popping up
and reads "Enter Message Here" :( (I don't know the correct term for "help
bubbles".)

I'm afraid you have your views mixed up. You have to have the table opened
in datasheet view to see the description in the status bar!
But, to answer your question, No!
