I am a new to Excel 2007. I have been using Excel and VBA for 10+ years.

My problem is I cannot get VBA in Excel 2007 to recognize Text boxes I have
on a worksheet.

I have a number of legacy (2003) workbooks that contain text boxes that are
modified by VBA code.

When I try to run the 2003 code in a 2007 workbook I get an error.....€�Item
with the specified name wasnt found€�

When I use the macro record in 2007 to record actions on shapes they record
nothing.

e.g. Create a text box and add text and color the box.

My result ...

Sub Macro1()
'
' Macro1 Macro
'

'
End Sub

.......absolutely nothing....I wonder if anyone could help. What am I doing
wrong?

Thanks

Gary
