I just recently got a new laptop and decided to try Office 2010 while I'm at
it. I have a single, simple macro recorded with a key-combo saved to it that
will insert a comment. I edit documents and spend MANY hours inserting
comments. My macro is simple: Insert Comment. That's it. I just do Alt-W
and voila! The comment is inserted, ready for me to type my text into it. In
Word 2003, it inserts nicely and neatly. However, in trying to create this
same macro in Word 2010, when I actually go to run the macro, it ALWAYS opens
up the reviewing pane at the bottom!! And yet, when I'm recording the darn
thing, it never comes up! So I can't even record a step to close it!!
ARGH!! I have spent hours trying to figure out how to get it to insert the
comment without the pane showing up. My new screen is smaller, and I can't
afford to give up that space to the stupid reviewing pane.

I tried opening up both macros and copying/pasting the text, but there's
only one line: "Selection.Comments.Add Range:=Selection.Range". There's
nothing in there about the pane as far as I can tell. I also used the
organizer found on the developer tab to copy the macros from my old .dot
template to my new .dotm template. STILL puts the reviewing pane in there.

If there is anyone out there who has some insight for me, I would greatly
appreciate it. Thank you so much!
