how do I create a "scroll box" for text in excel
 
How do I create a box to add additional text in an excell spreadsheet that
scrolls. Just like the box I'm writing in now.

Thanks

Andy,

You could probably use a text box form the Form toolbar. But mine isn't
working today.

Or you could use a text box from the Controls Toolbox toolbar. Click Design
Mode on (upper left button), make the text box, right-click it, Properties.
If you want it to put the data into a cell, set the linked cell property to
the cell you want it to populate. Set Multiline to true, Wrap to true. Now
to use it, click Design Mode off.
