Hi,
I have the following vba macro to re-position comment boxes on a worksheet but it's having no effect, would anyone have any ideas as to why that could be?
Many thanks,
VBA Code:
Sub ResetComments()
    
    Dim cmt As Comment
    
    For Each cmt In Sheet1.Comments
        cmt.Shape.Top = cmt.Parent.Top + 10
        cmt.Shape.Left = _
            cmt.Parent.Offset(0, 1).Left + 5
    Next
    
End Sub
 
Ah, there-in lies the problem and that accounts for what I was experiencing when I was playing with other comment box vba when trying to get it to work!!!
Well you've answered the query about the code I was using - many thanks for that :)
Ultimately I need a solution for changing the position of comments on mouse-over so I'll do some research and if I can't find anything (or a workaround that achieves the same end result) then I may re-post this with a more specific header & content.
Thanks again for your time and support with this :)
