Default Code to see if Comment Exists

Re. comments, I've always error trapped to check whether they exist. For
your needs I would do something like:


Dim myComm as comment
Dim c as range

set c = Activesheet.Cells(1, 1)

On Error Resume Next
Set myComm = c.Comment
On Error GoTo 0
If myComm Is Nothing Then
set myComm = c.Comments.add "My text"
Else
myComm.Text "My text"
End If
set c= nothing
set mycomm = nothing

Hi,


I have 2 queries which are currently wrecking my head.

Do you know what the code is to see if a comment exists. If it exists I
will amend the text and if it dosen't exist then I will enter a comment
but I dont know how to see if there is alreay one active on the cell.
I thought it would be something like
If Cells(row_index, 2).Comment = True Then

but that is not it. Any ideas.

Also, when I run a macro that has popped upa number of forms , when
they finish they dont seemto give the contrlol back to the excel
screen. Excel is still on the screen but the blue bar at the top is
slightly out of focus and you have to click on it to bring it back to
vlue. Then you can edit the cells again.

Is there a command to send the screen back so excel will be active ?

Regards
Brian
