  • Choose Insert action Comment from the main menu.
  • Enter your comment into the text box that appears next to the selected cell.
  • Click in any other cell. The comment box will disappear.

TipNotice the small, red triangle in the upper-right corner of the selected cell. This triangle indicates that there is a comment associated with the cell.

To edit, delete, show, or hide a comment:

  • Select Edit Comment, Delete Comment, or Show/Hide Comments from the menu.
