Pseudo text box in Excel 2003 Built-In template
 

The Sales Invoice template (Built-In) in Excel 2003 displays a €˜pop-up
comment box when you click in any one of the Tax Rate(s) cells. This is not a
standard comment, nor does it appear to be a standard text box. The €˜pop-up
can be repositioned but it cannot be deleted. When any other cell is
selected, it disappears. Can anyone explain how this created?

I don't have that template, but could the comment be from a Data Validation
setting?

Ron,

Thanks! That was it! I had to unprotect the worksheet to access Data
Validation and there it was. I never gave Validation a thought.
Again, thank you.
