Is there some mode that the userform textbox needs to be in for the user to be able to change it even if there is already a date in the textbox?

Obviously.., you haven't run your userform have you? A textbox is a
user input control and so doesn't need any special treatment to be used
as such.

Run the userform! Try it out!

Sub Userform_Initialize()
Me.TextBox1.Text = Date 'today's date
End Sub

When it displays, change the textbox contents however you like!

You're right. Sorry, bit of an amateur here.
