Hidden Text Boxes In Spreadsheets

G

Guest

There is a hidden text box that is referenced in a single cell. That cell
was then copied over and over again until there's something like 10,000
hidden text boxes in the spreadsheet.

Is there a script that we can run that will parse these sheets and remove
those hidden text boxes? We need to remove these hidden text boxes, we are
unable to find any fixes for this issue.

I have the sheets included in a zip file, please feel free to take a look at
them as needed.

Thank you in advance.

If you want to delete them all run this:

Sub ClearTextBoxes()
ActiveSheet.TextBoxes.Delete
End Sub
