Comments acting odd

[srmorgan]

This is an oddball question but:
I find in opening some but not all files, the comments are all visible when they should have been hidden and then when I try to hide them that option is not on the list of commands.
All it offers me is edit or delete. As I said this is happening, on most but not all files.
Is there an option that I might have checked or unchecked accidentally?
It is really annoying to open a file and see a column full of cells with open comments that can't be hidden.

Any ideas would be welcome

Thank you to all

Have you checked under File > Options > Advanced > then scroll to the "Display" section and look at the settings under "For cells with comments, show:" And then check the option buttons found there?
