Is it possible to change the color of the little triangles at the top right
corner of individual cells that indicate someone has placed a comment on the
cell? They're currently red, but that becomes a problem when the cell has to
be colored red (and, no, it's unfortunately not possible to use a different
color for the cell) because you can't see the flag. Any help would be
intensely appreciated.

No, it's unfortunately not possible to use a different color for a cell
comment.

>>Cell Comment indicator triangle, change color of,

Just to clarify, these approaches cover the comment indicator with a shape,
they don't actually change the comment indicator color. Lots of drawbacks
like the comment doesn't pop up when you mouse over nor adjust correctly
when you change column widths.
