Sorry, the first attempt to post this appeared to have failed so this may be posted twice.
Excel 2007, Vista.
When I step through the code and hover over "Type:= msoTextBox" the tip pointer indicates a value of 17 which is consistent with the mso shape type enum for a TextBox, but Excel produces a smiley face instead. Am I missing something?

Code:
Sub TBoxAdd()
Dim sh As Shape
'next line returns a smiley face
Set sh = ActiveSheet.Shapes.AddShape(Type:=msoTextBox, Left:=100, Top:=100, Width:=100, Height:=100)
MsgBox sh.Name 'Returns "Smiley Face #"
End Sub
