text boxes

[stevebutler]

how do i rename a text box?

is there a code to write for a text box so that you can always see it's outline? because when i click away from it, you can't even tell there is a text box there.

thank you,
steve

Assumed that the text box is not on an userform. Select the textbox and right click on it to bring the context menu and select "Format TExt BOx". Go to the tab named "Colors and Lines" and change the Fill Color or Line Color so that you can see the textbox even if it is not selected.
