I might be the only one in the world that gets really annoyed with those yellow text box popup tips every time the cursor passes over an item. The balloon tip that pops up is just an explanation of what the item is for or what it does when selected. I think I would be pretty safe in guessing that whenever a balloon tip appears there is a help button to go to if anyone really needs or wants to know about any particular item. So, to put an end to my frustration and annoyance, I would very much love to learn how these things can be disabled or turned off. I did find somewhere, a while ago, a way to edit the registry. But that was when I was using Windows XP. Now I'm using Windows 7 and the only place these balloons get under my skin is in AutoCad. Which is vanilla AutoCad version 2010. I guess I have to give up trying to insert an image. I have a *.jpg file but no matter what folder I put it in this "insert image" function don't or can't see it for some reason. If nobody understands what my post is referring to I'll just have to forget that I posted it. Thanks anyway!
