Default Comments with text from cells

One way:

With ActiveCell.AddComment( _
Text:=Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("A1").Text)
With .Shape
With .TextFrame.Characters.Font
.Name = "Arial"
.Size = 20
.Bold = True
End With
.Width = 400
.Height = 300
End With
.Visible = True
End With

Adjust your sheet and range reference to suit.

I am using the below code to create comments. Does anyone know if it can
be modified so that the comments contain text from a given cell?

ActiveCell.AddComment
ActiveCell.Comment.Text Text:=""
ActiveCell.Comment.Visible = True

With ActiveCell.Comment.Shape.OLEFormat.Object
.Font.Name = "Arial"
.Font.Size = 20
.Font.Bold = True
.Width = 400
.Height = 300

End With



End Sub
