Linking a Drawing Object to a Cell

Linking a Drawing Object to a Cell

Here’s how you can link a cell’s value to be displayed inside a drawing object. In this example, a Text Box is being used, but this method will also work for Rectangles and other draw-able Forms shapes.

In Excel version 2003, find the Text Box icon on the Drawing toolbar by clicking View > Toolbars > Drawing to show that toolbar, then click onto the Text Box icon as shown.

For Excel versions 2007 or after, click onto the Insert tab, click the Shapes button, and click onto the Text Box icon as shown.

As you see in the following pictures, draw the shape onto your worksheet, and select it. In the formula bar, enter a formula such as =A1, or whichever cell whose value you want the shape to show.

Whether the linked cell (A1 in this example) is meant for manual data entry, or it holds a formula, the shape will also show that cell’s contents.
