Got a cash sheet and want to put names addresses and email addresses of people in it but by the time I've got a column for each of these (the address column would be especially wide) and columns for other things, the workbook is going to be too wide for ease of viewing. Is there any way I can type the person's name in col B, then have something open up into which I can put their address and email? The addresses and emails don't have to be visible on normal view, just available for view if necessary and available for working on, ie for extracting info from for macros. I'd put these things in a comment box in the cell (that would do for visibility) but I really want something more structured.

you could use comments, Input message from Data Validation. You could
insert textboxes and set visible = false and make then visible when the
cell is selected.
Or you write the name in column B and make this name a hyperlink to a
cell in another sheet, where the address and email address for this name
is.
