It could also be that you are trying to enter text from the formula line.
This make the data in the text box as a formula. Very cool for dynamic text
boxes...not good if you want static data. You should be entering information
in the text box itself.

We require some more details. Where have you created the textbox, in the
sheet or a userform. Are you using the control from the Control Toolbox
menu. Are there any macros you are using.
