Programatically Resize A Comment Box

Sep 19, 2006

I use comments to supply various detail information on the value in the cell. This might take 10-12 lines of comments, but only the first five appear when you hover over the cell. In order to see the entire comment you have to right click and edit then manually resize.

Any tips on how to resize at the time the comment is loaded so no manual intervention is required?

Macro To Create Empty Comments And Resize Them To Uniform Size?

Nov 28, 2013

I am a novice user and not very familiar with Macros or VBA. I took a macro I found on contextures and got it to resize comments that already exist. However, I am trying to get it to also create the comment (with no content) if the comment does not already exist, and then resize it. This is what I have so far:

Code:
Sub ResizeCommentsInSelection()
Dim mycell As Range
Dim myRng As Range
Dim lArea As Long
Set myRng = Selection

AutoFit Size Of Comment Box Of Selected Cell(s) To Its Content

Jan 18, 2014

I am wondering within the Excel interface, is it possible to auto-fit the size of a comment box to its content?

I have searched the internet and found that a macro as follows could do the job:

Sub FitComments()
Dim c As Comment
For Each c In ActiveSheet.Comments
c.Shape.TextFrame.AutoSize = True
Next c
End Sub

However, this Macro applies to and resize all of the the comment boxes in the active sheet.

I would like to just auto-fit the comment box only to the selected cell, or even better, to multiple selected cells.

Print Dialog Seems To Resize A Text Box - ?

Feb 11, 2009

I have a (semi-inherited) macro that prints different pages of a workbook, based on whether and what their entries are. One of the pages contains a text box, where users will enter different lengths of text. When the macro runs, it prints right the first time but also "resizes" the text box so that future print attempts only print part of it.

I put "resize" in quotes because the text box does not appear to change shape. However, when I look at its properties it suddenly says it is much smaller than it was before (and still appears to be).

FWIW, I'm using Excel 2003.

Here's the code in question (the problem is on the "narrative" page):

Sub CLCMprintall()
' prints all pages (with data) on the CLCM spreadsheet
Dim x, a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h, i As String
Dim y, z, q As Integer

ActiveSheet.Unprotect Password:="***"

'notes active cells on each sheet to return cursor there afterwards.
x = ActiveSheet.Name
Sheets("page 1").Select
a = ActiveCell.Address(True, True)
Sheets("narrative").Select
d = ActiveCell.Address(True, True)
'(repeat for other worksheets - also sets values for Loan2Amt, Q & Z,
'which govern whether other unrelated sheets need to be printed.)
'
'tests whether there is text in Overflow sheet and sets print area if there is
If q 0 Then
Call OverflowPrintArea.............

how to copy the contents of multiple comment boxes and paste in a single comment box.

The big picture is that I have a number of cells with numerical values in and text in comment boxes. I want to be able to click a button to copy the contents of the comment boxes and paste them, along with the numerical value from the cell, into a single comment box, ordered by highest to lowest value within the comment box, then delete the original cells and comments.

I am quite new to VBA but have been coping quite well so far with information of the web and analysing recorded macros.

If Date Found In Cell Above, Put This Text In Comment

Feb 12, 2009

Cell B4 is selected by user and then runs the macro. The macro then looks UP (A3, A2, A1 etc) cell by cell until it finds the first cell that has a valid date in it and if that date is same as the date that the macro is being run pastes "This Text" into the comments section (Not replacing everything in the comments but simply adding to it.)

Column A

2/20/2009
(empty cell)
Dave
Jonathan

2/21/2009

Insert Pic Into Comment For Every Cell That Has Text Containing String .jpg Or .png

May 10, 2009

I need a nudge in the right direction with how to amend the below code so that it :
1: cycles though all cells in a workbook, and sees whether the text reference of the cell contains a picture filename (i.e. searches for .png or .jpg in the cell contents)
3: if (1) is correct, it retrieves the picture from "C:/Users/jeff/Documents/Standards/" and pastes it as a cell comment background in the cell to the right (and overwrites any comment backgrounds that might already exist there)

The code below does something a bit different: it looks in a defined range, then adds a comment with a background picture retrieved based on the text in the cell to the left.

I'm sure this is a pretty basic change, but my VBA skills aren't up to it...I've only just started reading though Walkenbach's Power Programming! I'm using Excel 2007

Sub InsertComment()
'www.contextures.comxlcomments03.html
Dim rngList As Range
Dim c As Range
Dim cmt As Comment
Dim strPic As String

On Error Resume Next

Set rngList = Range("A1:A5")
strPic = "C:/Users/jeff/Documents/Standards/"
On Error Resume Next
For Each c In rngList
With c.Offset(0, 1)...................

Listbox Text Size Bug

Dec 29, 2009

I have a sheet with four listboxes on it. All four have their source on the "Lookup" tab - Lookup is very hidden and is zoomed at 100%. Every once in a blue moon, the text in the four listboxes will shrink to be very tiny. The listboxes themselves will stay the same size, but the text inside shrinks.

Starts off looking like this:[url]
Somehow ends up looking like this: [url]

I compared the two pictured files and the properties of the listboxes were totally identical for both.

Each time this has happened, it's always been on someone else's computer (fifty people each use a copy of this file), so I don't have many clues as what is going on when this happens... Does anyone have any idea how to prevent this from happening, or how to restore a file like this instead of replacing it?
