    That's very helpful, I've been thinking about how to write a comment in a formula. Now I know how to do it. Thanks!

    Thanks Alan. I use N() to add comments/descriptions to formula but I had not thought about using it with SUMPRODUCT. I like that solution because occasionally a user thinks the double negative is an error and "corrects" it. Using the N function would make it more obvious that the action was intentional and should not be edited lightly.

      Nice thinking Grainne. I like this reasoning for using the N function instead of the double negative.

    Nice tip, but it only seems to work for adding comments in formulae that return a value.
