thx

i discovered answer shortly before posting above question:

sub activate_textbox()           ' stuff before edit mode...           ' ...            ' textbox name           dim sname string           sname = application.caller            ' textbox shape object           dim txtbox shape           set txtbox = activesheet.shapes(sname)            ' enter edit mode (put cursor textbox)           txtbox.textframe2.textrange.select            ' cleanup           set txtbox = nothing end sub

recommended protect sheet, else you'll see selection handles on textbox when has focus. and, if protect sheet, you'll want unlock text, can type in it:
