Is the comment hidden? Right-click on the cell with a comment and select
edit comment from the shortcut menu, you can then select it and do what you
will.

Comments should copy if you use Edit, Move or Copy sheet, click make a copy
to retains the sheet in the original workbook.

It is always useful to click the Notify me of replies checkbox when asking a
question.

OK, I'm embarrassed ... I posted about this two days ago and despite an
hour's worth of efforts, cannot find the thread. I have an Excel document in
Vista (though it has been saved to be compatible with Office 2003) with text
boxes. I am unable to select a text box to move it, edit the text, or delete
it. I am unable to insert a new text box (option is greyed out). None of the
worksheets in the document are protected. When I copy an entire worksheet to
a new document, the text boxes do not copy over.

I've tried saving the document as several different types of Excel files
(options in Vista), but the problem still exists. I know this is probably
something really simple, but I can't figure it out.

Any ideas? Anybody?
