Those are both interesting, but I'm not sure if the former helps my problem.
And I'm not sure if the latter allows me to include my name along with the
text of my comment, both in the same reduced font size and debolded. For
now, it looks like I cannot change the default for the font and size of my
name (Dean:) at the beginning of the comment, which I do want to have. Do
you know if that can be done, hopefully without a macro?

Thanks!

Dean

I want to reformat all text, even including my name, which appears at the
beginning. I figured out how to do this except for the name. Can the
name not be done?

Before answering, let me clarify. Yes, I am successful, even with the
name, when doing an individual cell. It;'s just that when I go to insert
another comment, the change does not get saved as a "global" desired
change within the worksheet - and that's what I want. In other words, I
can also change the font for my name "Dean:". but only for the cell being
edited, not all cells to begin with.

Thanks!
Dean

For some reason, the format on all my cell comments appears in a large
bold font. I'd like to de-bold and make the font size smaller. I do
not know how to edit this. EXCEL help says to choose comments from the
format menu, but, if they mean the format dropdown, I see no such thing
there.

Help, please. Editing this manually is a pain!

Thanks!
