I got the below code from another thread but it only works when you click the textbox, not the actual text:

<font face=Calibri><SPAN style="color:#00007F">Private</SPAN> <SPAN style="color:#00007F">Sub</SPAN> HighPercent_Enter()<br>  <br>    <SPAN style="color:#00007F">With</SPAN> HighPercent<br>        .SetFocus<br>        .SelStart = 0<br>        .SelLength = Len(HighPercent.Text)<br>    <SPAN style="color:#00007F">End</SPAN> <SPAN style="color:#00007F">With</SPAN><br>        <br><SPAN style="color:#00007F">End</SPAN> <SPAN style="color:#00007F">Sub</SPAN></FONT>
 
Ah! I missed that!!! It works great now! This will be extremely useful going forward, thanks for teaching me!
