Solved: message above vba code

[JLSHARP92]

So I have my macro code and a great big thanks to xld for making it possible for me, but I have another problem. I need to leave a message above each piece of code starting with ' in order to make the system more effective and to understand more what the code means. If somebody could help me with putting the messages above the code that would be a great help. Thank you

[vba]Sub LogIn()

'stops the screen from flickering
Application.ScreenUpdating = False

'declares variables
Dim uname As String
Dim pword As String
Dim rng As Range

'moves worksheet and sets values to variables
Sheets("LogInForm").Select
uname = Range("Username")
pword = Range("Password")

'if values are not empty
If uname <> "" And pword <> "" Then

'
With Sheets("UserDetails")

'
On Error Resume Next
Set rng = .Columns(1).Find(uname)
On Error Goto 0
If Not rng Is Nothing Then

'
Sheets("LogInForm").Range("Username") = ""
Sheets("LogInForm").Range("Password") = ""

'
If pword = rng.Offset(0, 1).Value Then

'move worksheets and reset values , then moves sheets
Sheets("MainMenu").Select

'
Application.ScreenUpdating = True

'
Exit Sub

'
End If

'
MsgBox "Please try again, You must enter a valid username and password", vbOKOnly

'
End With

'
Else

'
MsgBox "You must enter both a username and password"

'
End If

'
Application.ScreenUpdating = True

'
End Sub [/vba]

Filled in the ' boxes for you i think they are ok.
You can get the meanings for any of the keywords by highlighting the word then pressing F1 from the code window.
Have Fun.

Thank you very much for this And thanks for the shortcut tip, I'll keep that in mind when I have to create more parts of my system.

jl can you mark post as solved if ok
had a look at your new post, there is a user form on the system that could be possibly what you want or could modify to suit.
But i cant find it or remember the link.
perhaps you can ask Simon Lloyd or MD they might be able to find it for you or point you in the right direction.
