Notes Assistant

The Notes Assistant add-in for Microsoft Excel makes using notes on Microsoft Excel worksheets easy.

The first option on the Hide or Show Notes dialog above makes the note of the selected cell always visible. The Excel setting when note indicators are visible is to only show a note when you hover the mouse over it. By having it displayed all the time the cell is selected, it is easier to read, and you can click into it to edit it.

The features to convert cell entries to notes or to convert them back are useful. One can convert to cell entries, easily edit, print, and then convert back to notes.

The feature “Resize and position notes” found on the second tab handles the problem of cell notes getting moved far away from their parent cell. With just a click, the notes are resized and repositioned next to their cells.
