hide comments automatically (can't find the setting)

[KR]

Using Excel 2000;

When I add a cell comment, it always stays on top until I click on the cell
and select 'hide comment'.

I want comments to be hidden by default, and not have to hide each one when
I make it. I've looked but don't see where to change this default setting.

Help!

There is an option in Tools -> Options -> view tab, where you can select the
default behaviour of comments. Selecting "none" there should do the trick.

I used the indicator only setting, but that did the trick!
Many thanks,
