Why is Page Setup Comment Box blanked in Excel 2003?

I am using Excel as a database for records. I want to print out a worksheet
complete with comments. WhenI use Page Setup>Sheet I find that the Comments
Box is blanked out/unuseable.
Can anyone explain/help.

The comments option will be disabled if you access the Page Setup dialog
box from the Preview window.

Instead, in Normal view, choose File > Page Setup.
