I've been having this problem for years, that on pressing, my Form Controls and Active X controls (when used on a sheet, not in a UserForm) resize themselves, to the point that after a few presses, the size of the control is far larger than originally set, the font of the text increases as well.

Is there a way to prevent the controls from resizing upon pressing ?

Kind regards,

Chris

Thanks Alpha,

unfortunately, when I looked into it, it seems the bugfix is only for Excel 2010. I tried to install it on my Excel 2013, but it didn't allow me to get very far.

I'm giving up on a solve, and finding some less elegant workarounds.

Ta again,

Kind regards,

Chris
