      Right click in the cell and select “Edit comment” from the pop-up menu. Drag the I-beam cursor to select the text you want to copy. Right click in the selected text and select Copy from the pop-up menu. Switch to Word and paste.

        Apologies for the tardy reply. Pressure of work…

        Sorry I did not express myself correctly I wanted to copy the comments using VBA. Fortunately Peter Morgan pointed me in the right direction.

        Thank you for your time and interest.

      In addition to Lagare’s instructions, you can also find a macro to print all comments at Chip Pearson’s excellent site.

      Good Luck!
