Comments to Text

[Ross from Orlando]

Use Word 2007. Someone sent me a document with several comments (using
Word's comment feature). What I'd like to do, if possible, is to
convert all the comments to text, to appear in the document in the
places with the corresponding comment markers. And if the text could
be in red font, so much the better. Any ideas? Thanks,

Ross

The following macro should do the trick:

Sub InlineComments()
Dim c As Comment
Dim r As Range
For Each c In ActiveDocument.Comments
Set r = c.Reference.Duplicate
r.InsertAfter "[" & c.Range.Text & "]"
r.Font.Color = wdColorRed
c.Delete
Next c
End Sub

If you need assistance with the macro, see
