Hello Everyone,
I'm using Excel 2007 and can't figure out how to change the shape
of a comment. In 2003 you would select the comment and then from the
Drawing toolbar select Draw, Change Autoshape. From what I could gather
from Help I should select the comment and make a selection from the
Format tab, but that tab doesn't appear when when a comment is
selected. Anyone know how to do this? Thanks,

Tanya

You can add the Change Shape command to the Quick Access Toolbar, then
use it to change the shape of the selected comment.

Thanks Debra. Is this command or its equivalent in the Ribbon
somewhere?

Not that I can find, when a comment shape is selected.
