how to select textbox tool via a VB code

What I'd like to do is be able to press a shortcut key (I know how to set this part up) and have excel select the "text box tool" so I can just click and start typing immediately. Is this possible to do with VB?

Also, is it possible to have a sub place the cursor in a desired position on the screen (for example 800 pixles to the right and 500 pixels down of the top left corner of the screen? This way, once the textbox tool is selected, I can just click and start typing.

Thank you.

The first two numbers are for the position of the text box, the second set of two numbers are for the width and height of the text box.

Great! Exactly what I need. Thank you.
