Code crashes after clearing comments
 

Hello Excel users and experts,

I offered this code to a poster about 4 or 5 posts below this one (Gary
11:35) and now I find that the codes seems to crash after I clear the series
of comments it compiles in column A. Not good!!

Any ideas where I am going wrong?

Option Explicit

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
On Error Resume Next
Application.EnableEvents = False
If Target < Range("F1") Then Exit Sub
Range("A100").End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0).Select

With Selection
.AddComment
.Comment.Text Text:=Range("E1").Value & ":" _
& Chr(10) & Range("F1").Value
.Comment.Visible = True
.Value = Range("F1").Value
End With

Range("F1").ClearContents
Range("F1").Select
Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub

Thanks,
Howard

The problem may lie in the lines

Application.EnableEvents = False
If Target < Range("F1") Then Exit Sub

Here, you exit the sub without restoring EnableEvents back to
True.

Thanks Chip, I changed...

If Target < Range("F1") Then Exit sub

To:

If Target < Range("F1") Then
Application.EnableEvents = True
Exit Sub
End If

WOW, seems to have solved the problem.
Have to admit, I do not understand why the "select rows delete comments"
event would bust the code. Also I delete cell contents... but whatever???

Thanks a ton Chip, always a pleasure!

Howard

New code...

Option Explicit

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
On Error Resume Next
Application.EnableEvents = False

If Target < Range("F1") Then
Application.EnableEvents = True
Exit Sub
End If

Range("A100").End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0).Select

With Selection
.AddComment
.Comment.Text Text:=Range("E1").Value & ":" _
& Chr(10) & Range("F1").Value
.Comment.Visible = True
.Value = Range("F1").Value
End With

Range("F1").ClearContents
Range("F1").Select
Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub
