string str = "E-mail has been changed as [email protected]";
ExcelFont font1 = workbook.CreateFont();
font1.FontName = "Century Gothic";
font1.Color = Color.DarkCyan;
font1.IsBold = true;
After set text style, then add cell comments. Select cells range which we want to add comments. In addition, with Spire.XLS, users can even set comments area size.
sheet.Range["A6"].Comment.RichText.Text = str;
sheet.Range["A6"].Comment.Width = 200;
sheet.Range["A6"].Comment.Height = 50;
sheet.Range["A6"].Comment.RichText.SetFont(26, 47, font1);
