Default Can I add a number to the contents of a cell to indicate a note ..

In spreadsheets and publications you often see text or data followed by a
tiny number in the top right of it to refer to a note at the bottom of a
page. I dont know what it's called - can i do it in a cell in Excel?

Hi,
You can do it, go to the cell where you want to enter the note, right click
in the mouse, insert comments, if you don't see the comment entered, right
click again in the cell and press Show/Hide Comments

If this was helpful please click yes, thanks

Manually enter the number after the text.

F2, select the number and format to superscript.
