Calc automatically adds to any recorded change a comment describing what was changed (for example, Cell B4 changed from ‘9’ to ‘4’). Reviewers and authors can add their comments to explain their changes.

To add a comment to a change:

  1. Make the change to the spreadsheet.
  2. Select the cell with the change.
  3. Choose Edit > Changes > Comments. The dialog shown below appears. The automatically-added comment provided by Calc appears in the title bar of this dialog and cannot be edited.
  4. Type your own comment and click OK.
