Default link comments section of properties dialog box to footer in Excel

Thanks Gary that worked a treat.

For future reference is it possible to put the value into a cell?

Regards

Hi

I use the Comments section in Summary of File Properties quite a lot and
would like to link the contents into the file footer.

I managed this when using Microsoft Word by inserting the field code
{COMMENTS} into the footer then creating a macro to update it on file
closure. Sadly I have not been able to do this with Excel.

I can reference a cell in the footer but cant seem to link the comments
section to a cell - can anyone help?
