I'm using a standard template pulled from Microsoft's Template Gallery and can't figure out a way to remove the help text provided within the template. 

Below is an example of a comment when hovering over B1:C2.

    Hi Ziggy,

    The text box that pop-up on your Excel template screen is the input message where you an disable or remove on data validation tab. Take note that you need to do it on each input message that you don't want to view on the Excel template.

    1. Go to Data tab.
    2. Click Data Validation.
    3. Go to Input Message tab and then you can uncheck Show input message when cell is selected or delete the text in Input message box.

    4. Click OK to save changes.

    Let us know how it turns out for you.
