Remove all tooltips from PDF Fom in Acrobat 9 Pro

[otg...@adobeforums.com]

I am trying to convert an Excel form into a PDF form. There are a couple of hundred fields in the form. By default, when I convert the excel file to a PDF form, Acrobat names all the fields automatically and this name is added to the tooltip. So when mouse hovers over the fields the tooltips show on all fields (e.g. for the column "Day" fields will show tool tips "Day_Row1", "Day_Row2" and so on)

I know I can remove the tool tips by going to the field's properties and deleting the text in the tooltip box, but I do not want to do this for 200 fields one at a time.

Is there a way I can tell the Acrobat to not fill in the Tooltips automatically when the form is converted from Excel file?

Thanks

Is there really no way to do this?

It is likely in the preferences of the PDF Maker (I am assuming you used this - but you did not say how you created the PDF).

I am creating the PDF Form using Acrobat 9 Pro. If I make changes in the preferences to not display the tooltips, it only disables the display of the tooltips in Acrobat on my computer. I want the tooltips to be cleared or not display on all PDF viewers by default.
