drawing text on a worksheet
I would like to add a block of text on top of a worksheet (Excel XP) using VB
Express 2008. When I use .AddTextBox to add text to a shape, I seem to be limited to 255 characters, and I don't know how to control the font attributes. Anyone with more experience who can point me to a better solution? Thanks. -- Dave Ackmann |

drawing text on a worksheet
You could add a Word Object to get more characters
Set WordObj = ActiveSheet.OLEObjects.Add( _ ClassType:="Word.Document.8", _ Link:=False, _ DisplayAsIcon:=False) "DAACKM" wrote: I would like to add a block of text on top of a worksheet (Excel XP) using VB Express 2008.
