Default Add comments without deleting.

I'm afraid that won't work. The end users just tab to the field and start
typing. Then it's, "Oooops."

Other ideas?

Original: Account adjusted, looking into mismatched order 123456.

Type in: Checking with accounting.

Look like: Account adjusted, looking into mismatched order 123456.
Checking
with accounting.

The way it is now, the "original" text gets deleted.

Hello - We are having trouble with users adding/overwriting comments
made
in
a cell.

Is there a way to allow users to type in a cell, but not delete? I
know
that Excel 2002 has a function that works like this, but we are on
2000.
Does anyone have the VBA to do this?
