I am translating an Excel file containing comment balloons in Tag Editor (FL 6.5). However, the comments don't appear in the editing mode. Do I really have to translate them in a separate file or is there a way to include them in the "Edit" screen?

Thanks for any advice!

You need to edit the filter definition file:

Open the Excel file again May 10, 2005

I haven't tried editing Excel comments yet, but I suppose you will have to open the Excel file in Tag Editor again, because your current TTX file doesn't contain the comments.
