Put HTML items on both sides of any item in these objects.  You will need to unlock the report to do this.

Left HTML of item: <SPAN title="the text you want as a screen tip">
Right HTML of item:  </SPAN>

rocky,

Your solution works, however the screentip stays for just about 3 seconds in HTML en does not reappear without refreshing the page. If there a way to make it persistent or reappear after the 'hover over'?

I am not aware of the available properties of the Span tag (this is HTML)

I'd bet there are some fancy Javascript solutions too, that may have more control and flexibility but I am not aware of them
