How to make a text-box appear when user passes mouse over object

I have several Text-Box objects. I want the application to pop up another text box or picture object when the user passes the mouse over the Text-box. My second choice of an action would be to have the second text-box pop up when the user presses the RIGHT mouse button on the Text-box, but having it pop up when he passes over it would be the ticket.
How is this done?

If you like, I can send you a sample project that will popup a picture box with some labels on it, when you pass the mouse over some controls.
Just comment me your e-mail.

Karmall: ooops..small problem. I need to have about 10 of these combinations on the screen each working independently of the others. I messed with what you sent me to try to make it work but I can't get it. Help??
