Default timestamp comments

Or to add another date at the end of the existing comment, and open the
comment for editing:

'=========================
Sub CommentDateTimeAdd()

Dim strDate As String
Dim cmt As Comment
Dim lBreak As Long
Dim lArea As Long

strDate = "dd-mmm-yy hh:mm:ss"
Set cmt = ActiveCell.Comment

If cmt Is Nothing Then
Set cmt = ActiveCell.AddComment
cmt.text text:=Format(Now, strDate) & Chr(10)
Else
cmt.text text:=cmt.text & Chr(10) _
& Format(Now, strDate) & Chr(10)
End If

With cmt.Shape.TextFrame
.Characters.Font.Bold = False
End With

SendKeys "%ie~"

End Sub

Hi Ben

You can run this macro if you want to add a comment with date/time stamp or change the date/time in the comment.

Sub Test()
Dim cmt As Comment
Set cmt = ActiveCell.Comment
If cmt Is Nothing Then
ActiveCell.AddComment
ActiveCell.Comment.Text Text:=Format(Now, "dd-mmm-yy hh-mm-ss")
Else
If IsNumeric(Right(ActiveCell.Comment.Text, 2)) Then
ActiveCell.Comment.Text Text:=Left(ActiveCell.Comment.Text, Len(ActiveCell.Comment.Text) - 18) _
& Format(Now, "dd-mmm-yy h-mm-ss")
Else
ActiveCell.Comment.Text Text:=ActiveCell.Comment.Text & Chr(10) & Format(Now, "dd-mmm-yy hh-mm-ss")
End If
End If
End Sub
