macro for in-text comments in student assignments

gmayor · #1 08-21-2023, 08:05 AM

The font used is not bold, but to ensure that remains true

Code:

    With oRng
        .Collapse 0
        .Text = sComment & Chr(32)
        .Font.Color = RGB(51, 51, 204)
        .Font.Name = "Universe Condensed Light"
        .Font.Size = 11
        .Font.Bold = False
        .Collapse 0
        .Select
    End With

This uses a darker blue.

By all means pass on the message to your colleagues.

Thank you, Graham,

It's just perfect now.

My colleagues will be well pleased to have a no longer work-intensive option for their in-text comments even without being technologically gifted.

Thank you again,
Ulrike

Graham, I am so sorry, I messed up my perfectly working macro.

When it did not come up by pressing the assigned key, I could still get it in 'Viewing macros.'

I thought I had to reassign it. So, I started with your perfectly working instructions. But when I try to run it, I get 'Compile error: Invalid outside procedure'

I tried to understand the instructions in the Help link. My techie ambitions were not enough to understand how to proceed.

With my heartfelt apologies,
Ulrike
