    Problem combining comments from different cells to another cell with vba

    Hi, I have learned a lot from the great advice from this forum. I am fairly comfortable with visual basic but This one has me stumped. I need a macro to combine one cell's comments with another cell's. My spreadsheet accumulates data and time stamped, progressive comments are necessary. I have no trouble combining two cell's comments if both cells have comments(i.e activecell.comments.text text:=range("A1").comment.text & Chr(10) & range("B1").comment.text etc..). The wrinkle I am running into is if one of the cells has no comment my macro "bugs" out. If this could be done by excel formula I would not have to post this thread. Instead of giving you an example of my macro here is basically what I need.

    I need to combine the comments from A1 and B1 into C1. If A1 has no comment I need the code to bypass that and just add the comment from B1(and vice versa if A1 has a comment and B1 does not). I have tried if conditions and else commands but I must be mucking it up somewhere. I have spent a lot of time searching online and through these forums to help myself and not bother you fine people. Any help in the right direction would be most appreciated.

    Try something like this...

    Surround your VBA code with CODE tags e.g.;
    [CODE]your VBA code here[/CODE]
    The # button in the forum editor will apply CODE tags around your selected text.
