Hi,

Calc
How do i (can i) place in a cell a message - that isn't part of the active
spreadsheet
I want to tell the user the data type they should be entering as 'date type
01/01/2012' and that the message will disappears as the user starts typing
Thanks for any help
Go to the cell.
In menu Data > Validity.
In tab Input Help enter Title and help text.
Check "Show input help when cell is selected."
You shoud not use 01/01/2012 as example, because it is not clear, which
01 is the day and which the month. If you want an example, use a day
which is impossible as month e.g. 31/12/2012 or use the more general
form dd/mm/yyyy.
Kind regards
Regina
