Inserting comments in Excel

Ever struggled to remember why you did something in a certain way, or worse, had to try and work out why someone else did something in a particular way?

Add comments to leave yourself and others explanations of why you used that figure (or that calculation or whatever).

To insert a comment, either right click on the cell or select the cell and choose comment from the insert menu.
