If you are using proteced documents as a form, you could
run on entry macros for each text field.
E.g.,
Sub Inst1()
MsgBox "Put your name in this field"
End Sub
If you don't want to use a protected form, I suppose that
you could use the same macros and fire it with a
macrobutton field in the cell. Users would have to know
to doubleclick the prompt to fire the macro
E.g.,
{MACROBUTTON Inst1 * }
If the instruction was short you could just use the a
shallow Macrobutton field as a place marker for the prompt.
e.g., {MacroButton NoMacro "Type name here" }
I want to create some 'pop-up' message boxes to instruct
the users on what text to insert in certain cells of
tables when they click on the cell. It would be perfect
if the message could appear automatically when they select
a cell and after they click 'ok' they can continue.
similar in any of the Office programs.
