Default Showing Comments

I had my comments set so that when you put the mouse over the cell it showed
the comments. For some reason now I have to select the comment, show the
comment, go clear up to the top portion for spreadsheet and find a pointer
line, click on it and resize the comment window to view the comment. What
did I do that cause this and how can I fix it globally. Once I fix a cell it
then works like before. Just place the mouse over the comment and it shows.

From Debra Dalgleish...........

If comments have moved out of position, you can reset them using the following
code:


Sub ResetComments()
Dim cmt As Comment
For Each cmt In ActiveSheet.Comments
cmt.Shape.Top = cmt.Parent.Top + 5
cmt.Shape.Left = _
cmt.Parent.Offset(0, 1).Left + 5
Next
End Sub
