Can someone explain how to do this technique?

I would appreciate any help someone could provide on this for me. I
actually created this spreadsheet two years ago, but for the life of me
I cannot determine how I did this now.

Click on any cell in row A. A thing that appears like a comment pops
up. If you click off the cell, it disappears. It looks like a
comment, but it is something other than a comment.

The sample can be downloaded at...

Thanks for any tips on how to reproduce this!

Most likely they are data validation input messages. See
Validation under the Data menu.

It is a Data>Validation Message.

Select the cell and Data>Validation to see what's up.

BTW..........A is not a row

A,B,C etc are columns

1,2,3 etc are rows.

Hi!

It's a data validation input message.

Select the cell then goto Data>Validation>Input message tab.
