I'm not a very advanced Excel user.
I don't know anything about programming or macros. The problem: I insert comments alot. When I go to edit the comment, it has usually wandered way off the screen and I have to follow that connecting line and scoll around to find the comment box. I drag it back so it will appear near the cell it is attached to, and resize it so it will show the whole comment, but when I reopen the document and want to edit the same comment, I have the same problem all over again. I've tried going to FormatProperties and choosing "move and size with cells" but I'm not sure how to test if this stops the comments from wandering because I don't know which cells will wander or what I have done to get them to wander. Even if it does fix my specific problem, do I have to go through this formatting for every comment I've inserted? I'd like all my comments to stay near the cells they are attached to so I can easily edit them, and I'd like this to be true for all new databases I create in Excel. I want the people I send this database to to be able to hover over the red triangle and easily read the comment. Sometimes the comment box is too small, too big, or not even visible except fot that connecting line. The many people I send this database to don't know, and don't want to be bothered with, finding a way to view the important information I've put in the comment. Thank you for any help you can provide. Heather |
