This is speaking about controls - do I apply the same
logic to what I'm doing then?
It seems odd that I can access the textbox when not using
code.

It appears you have to ungroup them:

The image and textbox are not from a control they are
insert directly on the worksheet.
First of all I insert a picture using:
Set NewPict = curWks.Pictures.Insert(myPictName)
then I place a textbox with a number in it to denote the
picture number using:
Set Newlabel = curWks.Shapes.AddLabel
(msoTextOrientationHorizontal, LabelLocHorz,
LabelLocVert,
75, 75)
Newlabel.TextFrame.Characters.Text = PictureNum
Then I group the picture and the textbox
To access the Label or textbox the only way I can do it
is
to ungroup and change the text as follows ... I thought
I
should be able to access the text without ungrouping or
am
I using the wrong type of object?
Selection.ShapeRange.Ungroup.Select
ActiveSheet.DrawingObjects(Array
("Picture", "Label")).Select
ActiveSheet.DrawingObjects("Label").Characters.Tex t
= "10"

Is the textbox from the control toolbox toolbar or from
the forms toolbar
What is the shape?
Why not post the code the does the ungrouping, updating
and regrouping.

I am trying to edit the value of a textbox that I
have
grouped with a shape (using code). The only way I can
seem
to change the value is to ungroup the shape and
textbox
then change the value of the textbox and then regroup
them. Is there a more simpler way of doing this -
how do
you access a grouped textbox to edit the content?
David
