Insert comment command
I have a 'Protected and Shared' workbook that a group of colleagues and
myself use at work. Problem: I want to make the 'Insert Comment' function invalid. I want it only to become valid on clicking a programmed button on my sheet. This will then allow a comment to be inserted. After the comment has been inserted, the function will once again become invalid. Q. Can you offer any advice? Thanks in anticipation Russ Stevens |

Insert comment command
If you protect objects as part of your protection, then you can't insert
comments. In your code, unprotect the sheet, add the comment, reprotect the sheet.

Maybe you can use this option
You can protect the worksheet (ToolsProtectionProtect Sheet) and check "Edit Objects" They can edit all objects this way!! -- Regards Ron de Bruin (Win XP Pro SP-1 XL2002 SP-2) www.rondebruin.nl "Tom Ogilvy" wrote in message ...
