Toggle comments on or off macro

[Guest]

I would would like to display comments on template sheets for new users.
However, I would also like to allow the user to toggle between show and hide
the comments using a macro attached to a button (so as they don't need to go
to Options etc). Or, is it possible to add a comment to a cell that shows
only when double clicked?

Thanks in advance for any help with the code.

You may want to take a look at using the message in Data|Validation.

It won't react to a double click, but it'll only appear when the cell is
selected--using arrows or mouse, though.

Comments can be toggled on/off through View>Comments so no need to go all the
way into Tools>Options>View.

I wanted to provide an on/off switch on the page and was hoping for a more
exotic solution, this will have to do.

Thanks you both for the prompt response.
