How to get data from comment
 

Im really new to using excel and one thing I canīt figure out with the
help guide is how to get the data in a comment to a cell.

A1_comment - A2

The data (in my case text) to show in another cell.

Thanks in advance!

How to get data from comment
 
You need to insert the following VBA custom function into a module in your
workbook.

Function CELLCOMMENT(ByVal range_input As Range)
CELLCOMMENT = range_input.Comment.Text
End Function

Then, in cell A2, you type:
=CELLCOMMENT(A1)

A2 will return the cell comment in cell A1.

{cell of interest}.Comment.Text gives you the comment.
{cell of interest}.Value lets you change the value of a cell.
