How Do I turn off indicators and comments?
 

Hi,

I am using an excel spreadsheet someone else created. Almost all of the
cells have their own comments/indicators that pop up every time I click on a
new cell. This is very distracting - how do I turn them all off??

I tried
Tools Options View Comments None

however, this did not solve the problem.

Please advise,

Thanks,

Kevin

They're probably data validation messages. To turn them off:

Select a cell
Choose DataValidation
On the Input Message tab, remove the check mark from 'Show input message
when cell is selected'
Click OK
