Your macro will crash if column A already has Comments, giving user no way to
edit column B long descriptions and re-Comment without deleting orignal Comment
in A

I amended to this..........

Sub CopyDescToComment()
Dim lr As Long, i As Long
lr = Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
For i = 1 To lr
If Cells(i, 1).Comment Is Nothing Then
Cells(i, 1).AddComment
Cells(i, 1).Comment.Text Text:="" & Cells(i, 2).Value
Else
Cells(i, 1).Comment.Text Text:="" & Cells(i, 2).Value
End If
Next
Columns("B:B").EntireColumn.Hidden = True
End Sub

Hi Chuck

This small macro should do the trick

Sub CopyDescToComment()
Dim lr As Long, i As Long
lr = Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
For i = 1 To lr

Cells(i, 1).AddComment
Cells(i, 1).Comment.Text Text:="" & Cells(i, 2).Value

Next
Columns("B:B").EntireColumn.Hidden = True
End Sub
