Hi,

I was wondering how i would reference a textbox in VBA. I can do this no problem with activex textboxes but don't know how to do with a normal one.

I am wanting to use a normal textbox as the activex one is very laggy and takes forever to show the text you're typing.

Many thanks for your help,

Mike

Create a Pivot Table on a Map
If your data has zip codes, postal codes, or city names, select the data and use Insert, 3D Map. (Found to right of chart icons).
Sheets("sheet name").Textboxes("text box name") for example.
