Greetings all:
Quick (and likely very easy) question for the collective Excel wizards of this forum. I'm a novice user of Excel, simply looking to add a command button to my worksheet that would pop up some kind of floating textbox when clicked, giving the users some additional notes and comments about the sheet in question. It wouldn't need to make any calculations or gather user input of any kind -- just display some helpful hints -- and I feel the "Comments" feature in Excel is a bit too limiting for this purpose and hard for the average user to see. Can anybody quickly point me in the right direction on how to accomplish this? I've browsed around the web for an hour, looking for a solution, and I just don't think I'm using the right vocabulary. I know how to create a Command Button, but don't how to make this button actually do what I want and whether I need to write a macro of some kind or whether there's a built-in function or wizard that will serve the purpose. Obviously, if there's any way to pull it off WITHOUT writing VB code, that would be preferable, since I'm not skilled in that regard. I've got to think this functionality is fairly simple, however, compared to all of the other amazing stuff I've seen that Excel can accomplish. Thoughts? Suggestions? |
