    Text boxes and Command Boxes resizing

    Hi all,

    i am running a command button with a macro to print all sheets with one pres of the button and then return to a specific location in one worksheet.

    when i then look at some of the text boxes and command buttons they have moved location and changed sixe. i have selected dont move or resizt option but this doesnt help.

    has anyone got some advice?

    You're better off not using ActiveX controls on worksheets at all. They're incredibly unstable have a look here https://www.google.co.uk/webhp?sourc...eet%20controls and by using them, you're asking for trouble.

    Forms controls are much more reliable - they're in the same dropdown as the ActiveX ones, but are designed for use on worksheets - so you don't run into any stability issues, you can do most of the same things with them too and you can use them without using code.
