Hello wotadude,
Add a Hyperlink to the Shape using the right click menu. Send it to cell behind the shape. The Hyperlink has a tip text that is displayed when the mouse hovers on the shape.
Sincerely,

Since the hyperlink takes precedence, that method doesn't work if you also want to run code, which I'm guessing OP needs to do.
The only way I know to have a tooltip as well as code assigned to buttons on a worksheet is to use actual button objects rather than an autoshapes, then use the controls' mouseMove event to set the visibility of associated labels.
Attached example from a recent project with 6 buttons (NB code contained in 3 places - wbkInfoTips, Sheet1 and hideInfo).
Would love to hear of any better solutions as mine's not exactly elegant.
