Convert text to comment

I'm sure there's any easy answer to this, but I sure can't find it. I want
to highlight a line of text and convert it to a comment. How do I do this?
In WP, I just highlight and click once on the menu. Our office uses Office
2003.

I don't know how WP handles comments, however Word brackets the text and
opens the comment dialog for you to enter your comment.
If you want the selected text to appear in the comment dialog, then the
following macro will modify the behaviour of the insert caption function to
provide that

Sub InsertAnnotation()
Selection.Copy
Selection.Comments.Add Range:=Selection.Range
Selection.PasteAndFormat (wdPasteDefault)
End Sub

Sorry--I'm looking for a easy answer (like a menu option). I don't want to
make more work for myself like creating a macro.

There isn't one - and I have done the work of creating the macro for you!
