I'm a newbie.  This macro is working except that it doesn't close the
comment when it's parent cell is re-activated.  Can anyone please
help?

Sub CommentInsertDATE()
' Keyboard Shortcut: Ctrl+Shift+D
'
'adds Excel comments with date and time,
'  positions cursor at end of comment text
'www.contextures.com\xlcomments03.html

    Dim strDate As String
    Dim cmt As Comment

    strDate = "dd-mmm-yy hh:mm:ss"
    Set cmt = ActiveCell.Comment

    If cmt Is Nothing Then
      Set cmt = ActiveCell.AddComment
      cmt.Text Text:=Format(Now, strDate) & Chr(10)
    Else
      cmt.Text Text:=cmt.Text & Chr(10) _
        & Format(Now, strDate) & Chr(10)
    End If

    With cmt.Shape.TextFrame
      .Characters.Font.Bold = False
    End With

    'type to add comment text to selected shape
  cmt.Visible = True
  cmt.Shape.Select

End Sub
