Hi Brian, thanks, I had tried all of those (and more) with no successs...
I found out that there was an odd interaction with the OWC10 chart object...
that for some reason always popped to the front, obscuring the text box...
the only solution was to make the OWC10 object invisible. So strange!

Thanks again
