Default text box reference

try this:
ActiveSheet.Shapes("Text Box 62").Select
TextBox1.Text = Selection.Text
-----Original Message-----
Hello,

Instead of referencing my form text box to a cell on the
active sheet(see code below which works):
Private Sub UserForm_Activate()
TextBox1.Text = ActiveSheet.Range("ag11").Value
End Sub

I am trying to reference it to a text box on the sheet.
However, the following code does not work:
Private Sub UserForm_Activate()
TextBox1.Text = ActiveSheet.Shapes("Text Box 62").Text
End Sub

It gives me a run time error 438 (object does not support
thisproperty or method).

Any idea. Thanks
.
