Word 2010 display of comments, footnotes, etc. within document

I am using Windows 7 and Word 2010.  When I hover over an inline comment or a footnote, the text does not display as it did in Word 2007.  Is there any setting that is preventing the display of the comment/footnote text when hovering over it?  Thanks,

 

Ricki

Click File tab | Options. Make sure that "ScreenTip style" is set to something other than "Don't show ScreenTips" on the General tab and that "Show document tooltips on hover" is selected on the Display tab.
