The information in this article applies to:
PowerPoint 97 supports a special kind of text object called a Comment. A Comment is a text box that you can display or hide. Use Comments the way you would use paper sticky notes on a paper document; pass the presentation around and invite others to add their thoughts. When you give your presentation you can hide the Comments. You can display them again later if you want to use them as guides to edit your presentation.
To add a Comment, click Comment on the Insert menu. The Comment appears as a text box with the registered PowerPoint user's name at the top. You can type additional information beneath the name.
To make Comments visible, click Comments on the View menu. To hide them, click Comments on the View menu again.
When Comments are visible, they are also visible in Slide Show and when printed.
You can format a Comment the same way you format any other text object.
