Returning number and place in textbox

Returning number and place in textbox

Returning number and place in textbox

(OP)
Please can someone tell me, I have a formula in cell d23 and the answer I would like to display in my textbox, but when I try to display it, the formula disappears or excel crashes.  If I use the source option under properties, it does not seem to work with a formula.  I wish to subtract two other cells which is sources of two other textboxes.

RE: Returning number and place in textbox

(OP)
This is one piece of code I have written

Private Sub txtironmass_Change()
Dim x As range
    Set x = Worksheets("program").range("d23")
    x.Select
    ActiveCell.Formula = "=z-y"

End Sub


This is another piece of code I have tried.

Private Sub txtironmass_Change()
Dim myrange1 As range

Set myrange1 = Worksheets("program").range("d23")
If Cells("d22") > 0 Then
    myrange1("D23").Select
    ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = "=R[-1]C-R[-2]C"
 Else: range("d23").Select = 0
  End If
 
End Sub

Would this be more helpful
 

RE: Returning number and place in textbox

Sorry to be blunt, but it looks like you are very new to VBA. You should probably search the internet for some tutorials on VBA and Excel.  I can't tell from your explanation or your code what you are trying to do.

RE: Returning number and place in textbox

Try this. It doesn't require use of vba.

Display cell contents in a shape or text box
============================================
Click the AutoShape or text box you want to link.
In the formula bar, type an equal sign (=).
Click the worksheet cell that contains the data or text you want to link to.
You can also type the reference to the worksheet cell. Include the sheet name, followed by an exclamation point, for example:

Sheet1!F2

Press ENTER.
Note  You cannot use this procedure in a freeform, scribble, line, or connector.
