I have the following code:

On Error Resume Next
Dim curComment As String
curComment = ""
curComment = Target.Comment.Text
If curComment < "" Then curComment = curComment &
Chr(10)
Target.AddComment
Target.Comment.Text Text:=curComment & _
ActiveWorkbook.BuiltinDocumentProperties("Author")
& _
": Rev. " & Format(Date, "mm-dd-yyyy") & ", From
(" & Worksheets("Password").Range("A16").Value & ")"



I have two problems: 1) I want it to put in the note the
person who is logged in, not the ("Author").

2) I want this note to be visibale.
