Accessing Cell Notes

An LRO is a cell note, an external file, or a URL that you link to a cell in an Essbase database. Users with access permission can access the LROs to view or edit their content.

To access a cell note:

Open the worksheet and connect to an instance of Essbase Server.
Select Essbase, and then Retrieve.
Select the data cell to which the object is linked.
In Spreadsheet Add-in, you can identify a linked object by setting a style for it.
Select Essbase, and then Linked Objects.
The objects linked to the selected cell appear in the Linked Objects Browser dialog box.
Select the cell note to access.
The next step depends on the action to perform with the cell note.
