Solution-
I made the Control Toobar visible, and was able to use the
control from there. Why the Forms toolbox won't work is
beyone me. Microsoft may have a clever reason for
disabling functionality in one location while retaining
fuctionality in another, but I don't see why!

Tom,

I opened Excel on another machine, and when I made the
Forms toobox visible, the Text Box control was enabled,
UNTIL I docked the toolbox on the left side of the
screen. I did the same thing on the original machine,
and
that is when the control stopped working.

When I open the worksheet that I have used the control on
(100 text boxes), the text boxes don't respond for
editing. I have re-installed Excel, to no avail.

Still looking for a method to re-enable my Text Box
control.

Thanks.

Where is the edit box being use and define not working.

if you mean it is disabled on the toolbar - it is only
enabled when you have
a dialog sheet visible.

Hi,

The Text Box (aka Edit box) on the Froms toolbar is not
working in my Excel 2k. It worked yesterday, but
today
it
is not. My worksheet was open when a Copy bat program
ran,
but that doesn't seem like it should make a difference.

I have "reset" the toolbar, but that did nothing.

Any suggestions?

Thanks
