you can try some thing like this
With Cells(1, "A")
.AddComment
.Comment.Visible = False
.Comment.Text Text:="" & Cells(1, "B")
End With

Hi,
Firstly thank you Rizvisa1, really appreciate the quick response.
Sorry, im slightly new at excel -
1. click on view - macros
2. record macro
3. put in a short cut key (i put "j")
4. pase what you sent me :
With Cells(1, "A")
.AddComment
.Comment.Visible = False
.Comment.Text Text:="" & Cells(1, "B")
End With
---- in the discription
5. click on 'ok'
6. Then i wrote something (xyz) . pressed control C, went to a new cell, and pressed "cntrl j"
-- however as a result my excel crashed and it closed the program..
Anything I am doing wrong?
Thanks a bunch for your time!

Hey,
The macro essentially creates a blank comment in the cell A1 text.
What i needed was a faster way of doing the follwing:
copy stuff from one cell - go to another cell - insert a comment box in that new cell - paste what i copied from the first cell
a one way faster way of doing the above.
Thanks so much for your help!

Hi Shock,
See if this code satisfies your needs:
1. Select the cell you would like to add the comment to.
2. Run the code (you already know how to add a shortcut key to the code.).
3. An inputbox appears asking you which cell you would like to copy the contents from.
Best regards,
Trowa

Sub test()
Dim x As String
x = InputBox("Please input cell you would like to copy, (as in A1).")
With ActiveCell
.AddComment
.Comment.Visible = False
.Comment.Text Text:=Range(x).Value
End With
End Sub
1. Select the cell you would like to add the comment to.
