Hi,
Like Rishi Shaw above I find the delete button is disabled when all cells are selected
Mark entire worksheet
Under Review -> Comments => click Delete
That will clear all comments on a work
Thanks, that was great, I was able to delete all comments at once 🙂
Thank you for the very helpful tip. The procedure would also be useful for obtaining other cell information and editing.
Just select the whole sheet.
Top left corner of your sheet. There where you select the whole workbook cells.
Then right click, the delete comment. 🙂
@Franko unfortunately there is nothing any option on pressing right click to remove or delete comments when you select Top left corner of your sheet. There where you select the whole workbook cells. (till 2013)
only there is a option to clear contents (which clear all contents)
🙂 🙂 🙂
Thanks Franko for the short and simple solution
