How to prevent the wdPaneComments pane from opening

[Charlie Mac]

I have a toolbar to add comments using:

Selection.Comments.Add Range:=Selection.Range
Selection.TypeText Text:=MyText

How do I prevent the wdPaneComments pane from opening.

The ActiveWindow.ActivePane.close, works but flashes the screen.


Please help. Thanks.

Why not just add the text directly and avoid the Comments Pane altogether?

Selection.Comments.Add Range:=Selection.Range, Text:=MyText

Thank you. It is amazing what I cannot see when I am tired.
