Viewing Comments in the Sheet

You can view comments in an ad hoc sheet.

To view comment cells in an ad hoc sheet:
  1. Be sure to complete the steps in Enabling Comment Display in the Sheet
  2. Start an ad hoc grid or open a spreadsheet containing a grid and click Refresh.
  3. On the sheet, note the cells containing comments and unknown members.

    In the example shown below, cell B5 is an unknown member and Smart View marked the cell as a comment. The member name was probably changed in the underlying cube. The comment style indicates to us that this member needs attention.

    Additionally, a comment outside of the grid (G2), provides general instructions about the grid. Similarly, comments can be provided by users to highlight incorrect details, ask for additional information, or provide clarification.

  4. Continue with Editing and Deleting Comments and Unknown Members.
