Pop-up box problem

[Rowena Hart <rhart -at- INTRINSYC -dot- COM>]

Hello everyone,

I'm using Word 6.0 to create help for another software
program I'm documenting.  I'm trying to use pop-ups
to define key terms -- I thought this would be more
useful than the standard jump I've been using.

I can get a pop-up box to appear, but none of the text
I've entered shows up in it.  I have checked my "bible"
for on-line help, written by Boggan, Farkas & Welinske,
but I still have no idea what I'm doing wrong.  I hope
someone out there can "show me the way".

Here's what I've been doing --

To create the pop-up jump:

1.  Single underline the word or phrase I want to define.
2.  Use hidden text to create a link to the pop-up
definition itself.

I think I'm going wrong when I create the definition
itself:

3.  Page break
4.  # link_name footnote for definition
5.  K keyword/index footnote for definition
6.  $ Title footnote for definition
7.  Heading for definition, ie. Component
8.  Description, in normal text
9.  Page break

Please reply off-list, since I don't want to create undue
amounts of traffic for everyone...
