Hello there, I looked around and couldn't find an answer to this specifically.

Basically I'm trying to write a macro that finds text that occurs in both the comments of a worksheet and a table (found on the "Translations" sheet). Then replaces the aforementioned text with the adjacent cell data from the table.

Here is the code I have so far:
Sub Translate_Comments()​
Dim c As Range, rng As Range​
With Sheets("Translations")​
Set rng = .Range("A2:A" & .Cells(.Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row)​
End With​
With ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("Sheet1").Cells.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeComments)​
For Each c In rng​
.Replace c.Value, c.Offset(, 1).Value, xlPart, MatchCase:=True​
Next c​
End With​
End Sub​

And it's not working... I have written the code to do this for the cell data in the sheets, seen below, but I can't figure out how to do it for the comments too, anyhelp would be appreciated.

Functional code:
Sub Translator()​
Dim c As Range, rng As Range​
With Sheets("Translations")​
Set rng = .Range("A2:A" & .Cells(.Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row)​
End With​
With ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("Sheet1")​
With Intersect(.UsedRange, .Range("A:AA"))​
For Each c In rng​
.Replace c.Value, c.Offset(, 1).Value, xlPart, MatchCase:=True​
Next c​
End With​
End With
End Sub​

Thank you.
