Welcome Monique,

ShowPopup is a so called transclusion.
Just copy / paste this tiddler: http://www.tiddlytools.com/#ShowPopup
into your TW.
Name it: ShowPopup   (_don't_ tag it systemConfig)

Usage:
eg: MainMenu
<<tiddler ShowPopup with: TiddlerToPopup "label" "tooltip">>

[[TiddlerToPopup]]
!heading
some text

-have fun!
