how to print reference label name in excel for comments?
 
I have chosen to print comments at the bottom of my spreadsheet the problems
is it only gives the cell reference number. If I am looking at a printed
version I would not know what cell it is refering to. I then labeled
(reference) each cell but it still does not print out the name of the cell.
How can I print out the label name oppose to $b$3$?

Go to Print, Page Setup, Sheet, and select (under print), row and column
headings. This will print out the headings just as you see them on your
monitor.

You can use programming to copy the comments, with the cell name, to a
different worksheet. There are instructions he
