Default Unable to get TextBoxes property of Worksheet Class Error

This might work:

I have posted elsewhere to try and get resolution on my issue and decided
to
ask for help here as well.

I have an issue that is driving me crazy. I have a workbook that has
multiple sheets and some of these sheets have Textboxes (from the drawing
tool) on the sheet with standard naming (i.e. TextBox 1, TextBox 2, etc.)

I have a button that executes code that takes and builds an external file
with the data from the worksheets, including the TextBoxes. During that
process I am checking to see if those worksheets with TextBoxes have
anything
entered before attempting to grab the contents and write them to the
external
file.

Here is the crazy part. If I open the workbook and without doing anything
else, click the button to process I get the 'Unable to get TextBoxes
property
of Worksheet Class' error message.

If I go to each of the sheets, and click to Add text in each of them, then
click the button to process I do not get the error and everything is fine.

Going nuts on this one.

The IF statement below is where the code breaks with the error:

If Len(Worksheets(2).TextBoxes("TextBox 2").Text) 0 Then
'I loop through grabing text out 255 characters at a time for processing
purposes
End If

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.
