I am working on a project in Excel. I need to generate a shape, place text
inside that shape, and then allow the user to drag that shape around on the
sheet.

I have not been successful adding a shape, then using the TextFrame property
to add the text. Also have tried placing a text box.

If there is a way to "lock" the text so that it cannot be edited, maybe that
would work, but I can't find a way to do that.
Or, if there is a way to maybe add another shape on top of the text, and
group the text box to the shape, so that selecting the group and dragging has
the desired effect.

Can this be done? There must be a trick out there somewhere!

Thanks in advance.
