Instead of putting a formula in a text box, will a workaround do your job ?
If yes then try the following:
Put your required formula in a cell (preferably select this cell just behind your text box).
Once the formula gives you your desired result, create a text box and
1. click inside the textbox
2. Now click in the formula bar
3. click on '='
4. Click on the cell in which you had written your formula
5. Press ENTER button
The text box will have your desired result
6. Click on the cell containing your formula
7. Select 'white' as the font color (so that it becomes a kind of invisible
We are doing this workaround because as per my knowledge, a text box can have at max a formula just linking to a cell to capture the value of that cell. Beyond this, a text box cannot have other normal/complex formulas which we usually write in excel.
Hope this Helps.
