Default Using a cell reference in a text box

Can anyone tell me if there is a way to display the contents of a cell in a
text box? I need to display additional information on a graph and I was
hoping to use something like a text box to do this.

Thanks,
Raul

Raul,

The control toolbox textbox has a LinkedCell property which can reference a
cel. As the cell changes, so does the textbox.

You can concatenate cells to create a multiple cell entry.
In VBA for example

textbox1.value = Range("A1") & " : " & Range("A2")

Alternatively use a listbox with multiple columns.
