Inserting a Comment Block in Spreadsheets

In some reports (or forms), the template designer has prepared specific comment blocks in the actual spreadsheet, where you can add general comments.

The comment blocks are connected to a specific comment category and comment block. If you add a general comment and connect that comment to a specific comment category and block, then the comment will not only be visible in the comments panel to the right, but it will also be inserted in the comment block area in the spreadsheet.

  1. Right-click in the comment block area in which you want to add a comment and select Insert Comment Block:

The Insert Comment Block dialog displays, as shown below, and the comment category and comment block lists will be pre-filled with the category and block value attached to the comment block area in the spreadsheet.  

  1. Select a Comment Category and Comment Block.

  2. Then, select Add:

You can add several comments in the same comment block. The latest comment will be visible at the top.

In the example below, we want to add a comment in the Income Comments section. The comment category and block lists is automatically filled out with the correct values from the spreadsheet block:

If we add a comment connected to this category and block, the comment will be inserted in the comment block area in the spreadsheet, as well as displaying in the panel to the right:
