Status bar display when the mouse hovers over a cell with a comment

When my mouse passes over a cell C10 which displays a comment, the status
bar displays a message : "Cellule C10 commentée par Un utilisateur satisfait
de Microsoft Office" (french version). I am not so much satisfied by this
message. Is it possible to create an event Mouse_over (and Mouse_out) for a
cell, so I could change the status bar message. There is no such event for
the Application or the Workbook or the Worksheet ?
Thanks
 
FWIW in Excel 97 the message picks up the user name fro
Tools/options/General ... User Name.

Perhaps changing this would at least make the message more helpful
 
Sorry, the status bar text is completely different of what is shown in the
comment box, which shows the user name by default
Any other advice ?

A very simple search of this newsgroup came up with:
Application.StatusBar = "My message"
