    Hide Shape based on text entered in another worksheet

    Not sure if I'm going about this the right way, but I'd like to hide a shape in another worksheet if text is entered in a cell in the first worksheet.
    Cell B9 corresponds with one worksheet, B10 with the next worksheet, etc, each with the same named shape in the subsequent worksheet.

    As I have it, I'm getting an error that the named object "DoNotUse" is not recognized...

    Your help would be appreciated. Thanks!

    Are you unprotecting the sheet when you are running this code?
    Be fore warned, I regularly post drunk. So don't take offence (too much) to what I say.

    The Grid. A digital frontier. I tried to picture clusters of information as they moved through the computer. What did they look like? Ships? motorcycles? Were the circuits like freeways? I kept dreaming of a world I thought I'd never see. And then, one day...

    No I have not needed to so far. Once the text box is hidden, what is underneath is unlocked and editable by the user. I just want to be able to control the conditions in which they can edit. Btw, the protection I have in place is without a password.
