Monthly Electronic Deal

Each month we will supply you with a product that we believe is a great deal and may suit your business or personal needs. This is an opportunity for you to save time and energy shopping around for what’s best at the best price, because we have done it for you!

Brought to you by Alandale Training a great resource online for tips and on-site computer training courses in Vancouver, BC. Visit their site at www.alandaletraining.com.

As I work on a spreadsheet in Excel I find I sometimes want to record why I entered a specific value in the cell or what a complex formula does.  Comments let you do both of these things.

To add a comment to a cell:
1. Right-click on the cell
2. Select Insert Comment
3. Key in the text and then click outside the comment box

A small red triangle (the comment indicator) appears on the top right corner of the cell.  To display the comment, move the mouse pointer over the cell.

To edit or delete the comment, right-click on the commented cell and select Edit Comment or Delete Comment.

Now you can capture the thought process behind all those great spreadsheets!
