    Can't clear macro comments, please help!

    Hi All,

    I have downloaded a sales invoice template from Excel, played with the invoice template and some of these comments when you click on certain boxes don't apply anymore.

    I can't work out how to delete them though as there aren't any macros (from what I can tell).

    Could you guys please help me?

    Thanks in advance!

    Hi,

    Those are Data Validation input messages. Select the cell you want to remove them from, choose Data Validation from the Data tab, and clear the Input Message text from the second tab.

    Hi pattyd89

    Click on the cell that you need to clear message from. Under Data tab, click on data Validation, Click data Validation, select Input Message, Clear all
    Good Luck
    I don't presume to know what I am doing, however, just like you, I too started somewhere...
