OK, I stand corrected. But this will change all such objects in Windows, not
just Excel comments.

You change the default comment properties through the ToolTips in Windows.
Right click on the desktop, select Properties, choose the Appearance tab
then
Advanced. Under Item, select ToolTip. From here you can change the
default
background color and font for Excel comments.
