what does =EMBED("Forms.ComboBox.1","") mean?

[dan dungan]

Hi,

In excel 2000, i added a combobox from the control toolbox toolbar to
my worksheet. When I select the combobox in design mode the formula
bar shows =EMBED("Forms.ComboBox.1","")

I didn't chose the combobox from the forms toolbar.

Textboxes also show a similar formula.

Am I using these objects properly?

Dan

You did fine. Those controls are MSForms controls. That means that they come
from the Control Toolbox Toolbar--not the Forms toolbar.

(Don't look at the formula bar when you select these objects! <vbg>)

Thanks Dave,

I'm looking at anything to try and understand why my spreadsheet won't
stop calculating. <vbgasp>0

I have another thread where I'm trying to figure that out.

Thanks again,

Dan
