Hi there!

I've got a question from one of my college:
He created a (multiple line) textbox containing comments on a spreadsheet.
The problem is that, when the the textbox loose the focus, the first lines are displayed, no matter where the cursor was in the box.
Therefore, my question is: how could I force excel to display the current lines of text instead of the first ones?

thank you

Excel Facts

Links? Where??
If Excel says you have links but you can't find them, go to Formulas, Name Manager. Look for old links to dead workbooks & delete.
I'm thinking it might be better to use a list box and make each new line a separate item in the list, if you need to constantly show the currently selected line.

You're right, but a list is harder to fill than a textbox. So it won't help!
Thanks anyway :)
