Im trying to create a macro that comments based on another sheet I set up with the text in proper order (ie. A1 on Comment Sheet has Comment that should be in A1 for Sheet 1 and so on). I'm struggling with automating this one, does anyone know how to do this?
 

Excel Facts

Which came first: VisiCalc or Lotus 1-2-3?
Dan Bricklin and Bob Frankston debuted VisiCalc in 1979 as a Visible Calculator. Lotus 1-2-3 debuted in the early 1980's, from Mitch Kapor.
If you are copying Comments from sheet named "Comments" to a sheet named "Sheet1", try ...
Code:
Sub CopyComments()
    Dim cel As Range
    Dim rng As Range: Set rng = Sheets("Comments").Cells.SpecialCells([COLOR=#ff0000]xlCellTypeComments[/COLOR])
    For Each cel In rng
        With Sheets("Sheet1").Range(cel.Address)
            On Error Resume Next
            .Comment.Delete
            .AddComment
            .Comment.Text Text:=[COLOR=#ff0000]cel.Comment.Text[/COLOR]
        End With
    Next
End Sub

If copying cell text from sheet named "Comments" into cell Comment boxes on "Sheet1", try ...
Code:
Sub CopyCellText()
    Dim cel As Range
    Dim rng As Range: Set rng = Sheets("Comments").Cells.SpecialCells([COLOR=#ff0000]xlCellTypeConstants[/COLOR])
    For Each cel In rng
        With Sheets("Sheet1").Range(cel.Address)
            On Error Resume Next
            .Comment.Delete
            .AddComment
            .Comment.Text Text:=[COLOR=#ff0000]cel.Text[/COLOR]
        End With
    Next
End Sub
CopyCellText ignores formulas
- copy and paste values in sheet "Comments" before running the macro if text in any cells created by formula
