If you know the name of the textbox:
Worksheets("BG Info").TextBox1.Value = ""

ps.

This code:

Sheets("FI Resources").Select
Range("Clear_FI_Resource").Activate
Selection.ClearContents
Range("C8").Select
ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "1500"

could be rewritten as:

Sheets("FI Resources").Range("Clear_FI_Resource").clearconten ts
sheets("FI Resources").Range("C8").value = 1500

This kind of thing will make the code run a bit faster, but even better, it's
easier to understand.

I have an Active X text box in an Excel workbook that I would like to be able
to clear the contents of the box using a macro. Currently the workbook uses a
macro to clear the contents of cells to prepare it for use. I would like to
add instructions to this exiting macro to also clear the text box being used
to enter notes.

Below is the macro. The workbook has multiple sheets, but the text box only
appear on the BG Info sheet. That section appears at teh end of the Macro.

Thanks for any input.
