    ActiveX Textbox Access

    Hi y'all.

    I having been trying to solve this conundrum for over a week with no luck. I need to able to include an ActiveX text box in a spreadsheet that is locked. This, I can do. What is frustrating me is this:

    > I need to be able to have people copy the content of the text box so it can be pasted elsewhere as text.
    > I need to lock the position of the text box so it cannot be moved or deleted.

    If anyone out there has the answer to this question; I'm all ears.

    Cheers.

    Thanks. Your attachment showed me that I was in Developer mode whenever I tried to highlight it!
