If your project is associated with an xls (not addin) and it's intended to help
the users, why not just put the notes on a separate, dedicated worksheet?

It should make it easier for the users to find the notes and easier for you to
update.

I actually used an auto_open/workbook_open procedure that would select my
instructions sheet each time the workbook was opened.

It irritated a few users since they had to select the sheet(s) that did most the
work. But I could ask "Didn't you read the notes? It describes the newest
changes."

I have one of the Modules in my VBProject named "README". In it is
just helpfile data (i.e. no code at all), which I copy and paste to an
external notepad document when I roll out a new version. It includes
instructions for install, use, changelog and known issues.

To stop VB from trying to read this module content as code, I have to
start each and every line with a '. However that is annoying when I
am typing in new information, always trying to remember to place the '
there.

Instead, is there an option to change the module to non-code, or a
command I can put at the start that says "Ignore everything after
this"?
