How to Insert a Comment in OpenOffice Spreadsheet
- 1). Open your copy of the OpenOffice program, click on "Spreadsheet" or "Calc," depending on your OpenOffice version.
- 2). Open your file by going to "File" then "Open." If you do not have a file already saved, begin working in the blank spreadsheet that comes up when you open the program.
- 3). Click on the cell you want to add a comment to. Right-click, and you will see a small drop-down menu appear. Click on "Add Note," which will call up a little box that you can type in. If you are using OpenOffice Calc instead of their Spreadsheet program, you will right-click and go to "Add Comment." Type in your comment, and when you are finished, click off the cell to save the note.
