  2 thoughts, both of them a pain in the ass:

  1) Write an engine to build your text word-by word as movie clips. Assign any 'hot' movie clip a onRollOver event to trigger your bubble

  2) Use a monotype font and write some code to figure out where the mouse is in relation to the textbox _x and _y. Then calculate the word from that. Or, place blank clips on top of the box, as above.

  There may be an easier way to do this, but my brain hurts.
