Hi Hilary,

You seem to already have the answer :)

 

If you assign the following macro to your listbox, the text in the callout
will be updated correctly:

Sub ListBox1_Change()

Dim wb As Workbook

    Set wb = ThisWorkbook

    With wb.Worksheets("Ratio")

        .Shapes("Rectangular Callout 1").TextFrame.Characters.Text = _

        wb.Worksheets("interpretation").Cells(.Cells(1, 1).Value, 1).Value

    End With

    Set wb = Nothing

End Sub

 

Best to remove the cell link fro mthe shape, and there is now no need for
the formula at interpretation!A14.

 

Asa

I have seen the code he used, i think its 

 

Sub ListBox1_Change()

Sheet2.Shapes("shpMyShape").TextFrame.Characters.Text = Sheet1.Range("A24")

End Sub
