It's very hard to suggest anything with so little information, eg what's the
state of MultiLine & WordWrap in the textbox and WordWrap in the cell, what
occurs when user presses Enter (normally that will simply exit the text
box), or is that control enter, where is the code (in which event), etc, etc

here's a long shot guess

ActiveCell = Replace(Me.TextBox1.Text, vbCrLf, vbLf)

I am using a Textbox on a form to enter data into a cell.

Code:
ActiveCell=UserForm1.TextBox1.Text

When the user presses ENTER in the TextBox small rectangles appear in the
cell.
How do I prevent this happening?

Thanks for any help!
