I have both ActiveX and Form Controls on a spreadsheet to the right of data on the sheet. I'm ultimately going to choose one or the other but I was testing both types of controls When I delete the data to the left of the controls they all move to the left. I can't find a way to keep them from moving. The Locked Property on the ActiveX control is set to True. What am I missing and how can I prevent this?
Thanks in advance.

Whats the difference between CONCAT and CONCATENATE?
The newer CONCAT function can reference a range of cells. =CONCATENATE(A1,A2,A3,A4,A5) becomes =CONCAT(A1:A5)
Go to Design mode. Right click on a control and select Format Control. Select Don't Move Or Size With Cells.

Thank you for your response.
That works for the Form Controls which I can use, but what about the ActiveX controls?

I guess if you found it you are all set. The example I showed was an ActiveX control, same steps for either type.
