What is the Excel keyboard shortcut to insert a cell comment?

• A. Shift F2
• B. F2
• C. Ctrl F2
• D. Alt F2

Answer: (A)

Shifting the fingers to press F2 while holding Shift adds a cell comment in Excel. This shortcut opens the comment box for the active cell so you can type or edit the note. Pressing F2 alone starts editing the cell’s contents, not the comment. Ctrl+F2 opens Print Preview, which has nothing to do with comments, and Alt+F2 isn’t a standard comment shortcut either. So Shift+F2 is the correct way to insert a cell comment.
