Default Odd Text Box

Hello there,

I have what looks like a text box on my Excel spreadsheet.
However, I cannot highlight it and therefore cannot delete
it.

It does not have the normal borders of a text box in fact
it looks a bit like a multiline combo box.

Has anyone seen this before??

Thank you for your help

Maybe it's a Listbox.

If it's a listbox from the Control toolbox toolbar, try showing that same
toolbar. Then click on the Design mode icon. Then see if you can select the
listbox.

It could be from the Forms toolbar, too. Unprotect the sheet (if you need to)
and see if you can rightclick on it.
