[Solved] Can't terminate compare feature

Post by Joakim1970 »

When I compared two documents, the cells with different content got a red frame. After finishing the comparation and closing both documents, I opened the first document and the cells are still marked red, and a comment is displayed when I hover over the cell. How do I get rid of this?

I believe you right click on the cell then select Comment -> Remove (or maybe Delete).
I don't use comments on my spreadsheets, so I can't say for sure.
