Which action creates a new comment from selected text?

• A. Add Note button
• B. Insert Comment
• C. New Comment button
• D. Create Comment

Answer: (C)

Creating a new comment from selected text is done by starting a fresh comment tied to that selection. The best action is the New Comment button, because its label explicitly signals the creation of a brand-new comment linked to the highlighted text. When you click it, Word opens a comment balloon (in the margin) and a pane where you can type your note, clearly establishing the new thread for that portion of text. In different versions you might see similar wording, but New Comment is the standard control for this action. Other labels aren’t the typical button name you’ll encounter for this function in the standard Word interface, and they don’t convey starting a new comment in the same direct way. (If you want a quick alternative, you can use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+Alt+M to insert a new comment.)
