Default Cannot select text boxes

I have several text boxes in my excel spreadsheet, but I cannot click on
them. I have tried holding down Control, Shift and Control + Shift together,
but cannot seem to grab a hold of the edge of the text box. I have a feeling
it is some setting that is protecting them from being adjusted, but I can't
seem to find where to change it.

Somebody please help!
