The yellow boxes with dialog are Data Validation messages.

Select one of those cells and DataValidation to edit.

Hello Everybody,

I have Excel 2003 Pro on WinXP SP2.

In the templates that are provided with Excel, when we click on certain
cells, the relevant information appears in a yellow box which doesn't seem
to be a comment (technically) and I am unable to edit these boxes. What
are
these boxes, and how can I edit and make them?

How can I remove Lotus 1-2-3 from templates provided with Excel? (I know
nothing about Lotus 1-2-3 but I do have experience in quite complex
programming of VBA of Excel.)
A sheet which I have copied (to myFile.xls) from a template based file
(say
this file is called xyz.xls), makes xyz.xls to open every time I open
myFile.xls. I cannot see any VBA behind that sheet except that I wrote
which
doesn't make any other file open. I thing that file opening is done by
Lotus
1-2-3 which has been hidden in that sheet. I have some hints about this
possibility. What do you think? How can I break this file-opening
connection? I have already broken all links using Edit Links.

Thank you,
