Best Answer

To add what is called a comment in a cell in Excel, press Shift-F2. You can also draw a text box on the worksheet and type text into that. A comment will only be seen when you put the cursor over the cell. The text box can be seen at all times.

How to open Excel file in dos editor?

A DOS editor is not capable of reading a standard Excel file. An Excel file must be opened with Excel or some application that can read Excel files. Text editors are not capable of doing that. They are designed for working on things like text files.If you have a standard Excel file and save it as a text file, then text editors can open them. All that will be in that is pure text, and not things like formulas and calculations and formatting etc. When you are saving as a text file, save it with a txt extension and most text editors will be able to open it. How you specifically do it will depend on the particular text editor you are using.
