    Can't use text field from the developer tab

    I have already added the developer tab to excel, but under insert the last three options under Form controls (Text Field, Combo List - Edit, Combo Drop-Down) are shaded out. Why is that?

    As far as I know, they are only available when working with a UserForm inside of the Visual Basic userform interface. The icons should be available there.
