Default Excel should let me use hidden text (like MS Word) - Thanks

What you are suggesting can already be accomplished in a number of ways. You
can place the info in a Hidden Row or Column. Or, use a seperate Worksheet
for data storage. You could also change the text color of the "hidden" cell
to white (or whatever background color you're using). That way it is still
accessible, but will not show up when printing. And if you get into writing
VB code, you can open up even more possibilities.

This would allow information to be stored in cells but not printed when the
spreadsheet is printed.
