hello, sorry for my earlier blank post. You can add a comment to any cell in the workbook. The maximum length for a comment is 4,500 characters.
Suppose, I have one workbook named as sales report. So after opening this workbook, you can follow the steps given below to Add Comments To add a comment, choose the Comment command on the Insert menu. You may also use the Shift-F2 keyboard shortcut. JAWS will read the letters as you type them. However, it will not automatically read the text. You can use Insert-Up Arrow to read it. However, JAWS will also read text that is not part of the comment when you press Insert-Up Arrow. Here, in this workbook, if I would like to add comments to cells A12 and A24. Step 1: Move to cell A12. JAWS announces, "Quarterly Sales By Representative A12." Step 2: Press Alt-I to pull down the Insert menu. JAWS announces, "Menu Active Cells Dot Dot Dot E." Step 3: Press the Down Arrow key until JAWS announces, "Comment M." Then, press Enter to execute the Comment command. Excel opens a comment window. Your name appears in the window. The focus is on a blank line. JAWS announces, "Leaving Menus Blank Sales Zero Zero." Step 4: Type These sales figures are final. Step 5: Press Escape twice to accept the comment and close the comment window. JAWS does not indicate that cell A12 is selected. Step 6: Press Insert-Tab to verify cell A12 is selected. JAWS announces, "Sheet1 Quarterly Sales by Representative Has Comment A12." Step 7: Press Alt-Shift-Apostrophe to read the comment. Step 8: Move to cell A24. JAWS announces, "Pedicure-4-U A24." Step 9: Press Alt-I to pull down the Insert menu. JAWS announces, "Menu Active Cells Dot Dot Dot E." Step 10: Press the Down Arrow key until JAWS announces, "Comment M." Then, press Enter to execute the Comment command. Excel opens a comment window. Your name appears in the window. The focus is on a blank line. JAWS announces, "Leaving Menus Pedicure-4-U Zero Zero." Step 11: Type This store will be renamed Pamper Yourself next year. Step 12: Press Escape twice to accept the comment and close the comment window. JAWS does not indicate cell A24 is selected. Step 13: Press Insert-Tab to verify cell A24 is selected. JAWS announces, "Sheet1 Pedicure-4-U Has Comment A24." Step 14: Press Alt-Shift-Apostrophe to read the comment. Step 15: Press Ctrl-Shift-Apostrophe to open the Cells with Comments dialog box. JAWS announces, "Please Wait Collecting Cell Data Cells with Comments Dialog List Box A3: Jane Doe: The product sales figures are not finalized yet." Step 16: Press the Up and Down Arrow keys to review the comments in this worksheet. When finished, press Escape to close the dialog box. JAWS announces, "Pedicure-4-U Has Comment A24." That’s it. To add a comment to the selected cell, choose the Comment command on the Insert menu. To Edit Comments: To edit a comment, you can activate the Edit Comment button on the Reviewing toolbar or choose the Edit Comment command on the Context menu. When working in the pop-up comment window, JAWS will not read the entire comment nor will it read individual words in the comment. It will, however, read each letter in the comment. Suppose if I would like to edit the comment attached to cell A24. Follow the following seven steps to edit a comment. Step 1: Move to cell A24. JAWS announces, "Pedicure-4-U Has Comment A24." Then, press Alt-Shift-apostrophe to read the comment. I will change this comment to "This store will be renamed Pamper Yourself next month." Step 2: Press Shift-F10 to open the Context menu. JAWS announces, "Menu Active." Step 3: Press the Down Arrow key until JAWS announces, "Edit Comment." Then, press Enter to execute the Edit Comment command. Excel displays the comment. The focus is in the pop-up comment window. JAWS announces, "Leaving Menus Blank." The insertion point is at the end of the comment. Step 4: Press Ctrl-Home to move to the beginning of the comment. Then, press the Right Arrow key until the insertion point is on the letter "y" in the word "year." Step 5: Press the Delete key until the word "year" is removed. Then, type month. Step 6: Press Escape twice to accept the data and close the window. The focus returns to cell A24. Step 7: Press Insert-Tab to verify cell 24 is selected. Then, press Alt-Shift-Apostrophe to read the comment. That’s all for editing the comments. Hope that helps. Do get back if you have any further doubts.
