Inserting comments in NeoOffice (.doc/.odt) document

I recently changed from a PC to a Mac, and am very happy with the choice I've made. I've been using NeoOffice and am generally satisfied with it, only I can't for the life of me figure out how to insert comments in a .doc/.odt document. Every time I want to do it I have to boot up Parallels and work on Windows.

Can anyone help? Thanks in advance.

That was from the Neo Office help. The feature is not as good as in Word though.

Hi Fiona,
I insert notes/comments in Writer by selecting Insert > Note and that's it. Is this what you are looking for?
