Insert comment in OpenOffice - how it works

Comments can be easily inserted into OpenOffice. We show you how to do this.

Insert your own comments in OpenOffice Writer

1. Start OpenOffice Writer. Select the point in your document where you want to add a comment. Of course, you can also mark entire text passages.
2. Then click on "Insert" in the menu bar and select "Comment". Alternatively, you can use the key combination [Ctrl] + [Alt] + [C] to create a new comment.
3. An additional column for your comment appears on the right side of your document. Enter the desired text there.
4. Click in the lower right corner of a comment and choose "Delete Comment" to remove your notes.

This practical tip relates to OpenOffice version 4.0.1. You can also insert footnotes instead of the comments.
