Excel should show Comment box even if adjacent columns are hidden

[DEV]

I am using Microsoft Office Excel 2003 (11.80126568) SP2 at business

When I add a comment box for a cell (say cell(B,3)), it shows the comment by
moving my cursor to the red triangle on the right top of the cell. But when I
hide columns (say C, D, E columns) and now if I move my cursor to the same
cell (say cell(B,3)) it shows the arrow tip and the left border line of the
comment box but not to actual content in the comment. I think the comment box
is also hidding as with the columns that I hide (say columns C, D, E).

It would be nice to visible to comments no matter what the visible property
of the other neighbour columns are.

Please reply me if possible, because I am using lots and lots of comments on
my Office Excel file that is having this problem. I should be able to solve
this on your corrections/update for Excel 2003.

I cannot reproduce this problem, but I am using Excel 2002. Can you make the
comments visible with the 'Show Comments' option on the right-click menu?

I suspect there may be something unusual with the formatting in the
worksheet, can you reproduce the problem in a neew workbook?
