Add Comments in MS-Word using VBA

This VBA procedure (1) Searches words ("Str1", "Str2",..) and adds commentboxes to it and (2) changes the initials used in the box:

Sub CommentBox()

    Dim range As range
    Dim i As Long
    Dim TargetList
    Dim cm As Comment
    
    TargetList = Array("Str1", "Str2")
    
    For i = 0 To UBound(TargetList)
    
    Set range = ActiveDocument.range
    
    With range.Find
    .Text = TargetList(i)
    .Format = True
    .MatchCase = False
    .MatchWholeWord = True
    .MatchWildcards = False
    .MatchSoundsLike = False
    .MatchAllWordForms = False
        
    Do While .Execute(Forward:=True) = True

        Set cm = range.Comments.Add(range:=range, Text:="Hallo")
        cm.Author = "InternalName"
        cm.Initial = "Initials"
        
        Loop
    
    End With

    Next

With ActiveDocument.Styles("Kommentartext").Font
        .Size = 12
        .Bold = True
        .Italic = True
        .Color = wdColorBlue
End With

End Sub
