    ActiveX Textbox vs. Regular textbox

    Hello Again!

    I have completed a project to be shared via microsoft office onedrive for my team only to find that I cannot share files that have activeX textboxes....I want to place the code that it is in my activex textbox into a regular textbox so it can be shared but when I debug I get the error: object required....I deleted the other textbox and the name of the new textbox is now textbox1, please help!! I felt like I got to the finish line and someone just picked me up and put me at the start line again...daft.

    I don't know what this means; "the formula that it is in my activex textbox".

    Do you mean vba code instead of formula? If yes, show your code for both the ActiveX and Form-type textboxes. Also, describe in words what you want the code to do.
    Surround your VBA code with CODE tags e.g.;
    [CODE]your VBA code here[/CODE]
    The # button in the forum editor will apply CODE tags around your selected text.

    I did mean code not formula, my bad (newbie here). The code below is my activeX code, it works great but I need to input this information into the spreadsheet as a regular textbox...I don't have a form type textbox I thought I could just assign code to a regular text box found under the insert tab.

    I'm guessing here, but I think you want to change this...

    Me.TextBox1.Value = a & b & c & d
    To something like this...

    Make sure the name of the textbox is exact.

    Your command button is also an ActiveX control.

    You may want to try using Form-type controls, but I don't know if they work with office onedrive or not.
