Footnotes in Excel (not Footer)
Hello. In Word, there is a function where you can reference data-- data will have a number in superscript format which references to a footnote that will appear at either bottom of the page or end of document. In Excel, I don't believe it has this feature but I was reading up on some really old blogs (2001) that you can mimic this thru a VB script. Does anyone know the script for this? PS: I've tried doing comments and then just allowing the comments to be listed at the end of document - but it's all very manual. I've also tried to just put a number at the end of my data and changing its format to superscript-- but it messes up my calculations because it is being considered as part of the number. So I'm thinking this script is the best route. Can anyone help? Thank you, Storm |

you can link any cell to a footnote by inserting a hyperlink "Storm" wrote in message ... Hello.

Footnotes in Excel (not Footer)
Hi Patrick, The thing is, when I print it out, I need for it to be visual that this data is referencing to some footnote. A hyperlink won't really be captured on a print out, right?

you can still add a superscript to the item and to the note - they'll print, but you;ll need to rely on the hyperlink for the user to switch to the footnote. "Storm" wrote in message ...
