Default Add comment, and move up

Geoff,

I have basically created a form of sorts, but using cells to display
the data. My intent is to show all the info for one record on one
screen, without having to scroll. Not a big deal believe me. I could
just leave it as is, but it's more work for the user (granted, not a
lot). The comment is for a cell at the bottom right-hand corner of
the screen, and when the text in the column is more than what I
normally expect, part of the comment is below the bottom of the
current screen view.

By the way, I have Excel 2003.

I can drag a comment box with the macro recorder on, and when I do
that it shows:
Selection.ShapeRange.IncrementLeft -8.25
Selection.ShapeRange.IncrementTop -29.25
But if I attempt to use this code in my VBA, it doesn't like it. In
particular, it doesn't like ShapeRange, but it doesn't complain with
Shape.IncrementTop -29.25. But then again, it doesn't use it at all.
I've tried increasing the amount but still can't observe any movement.
