Question: I want to hide a blob of information or a paragraph.

I identified two ways to try this neither of which worked.

One was to store it in a **comment** which takes it outside the page but I can't use because it puts it on the side of the page.

The other way to store it in a **link**. However this does not work as the link adder wants a valid URL.

Is there another way to do this I am missing?

Answer: 
Use the script editor to store hidden information. You can use comments `/* */` to hold the actual information.

Make sure and click save when you are done.
**Option\_1**

Yes. Simple but *not secure*.

Change the color of the paragraph to white.

Then you can use a simple search to find the hidden areas (in this case they are preceeded of # symbol, as if they were comments in code)

Note: If anyone does a 'select all' they will see the hidden text, so the usability is very limited.

**Option\_2**

Another way, a bit more convoluted, is to link paragraphs to cells in a google sheets document (let's call it Document\_A). If on Document\_A you delete the cells the Doc is referencing and update on Doc, the content is gone.

I hope the video is clearer.

To created linked content (extremely easy), just copy the cells, and paste on the Doc. A pop-up will ask you if you want to link the content. Answer Yes.
