Hi
I may not be able to help too much, since I have no experience with Active X text boxes.
I tried for the first time ever to get what you may be asking for . This is how it went. ( Using Excel 2007 )
_1) I need the Developer ribbon ( You may already have this)

_2) Insert the text box

Finally , move cross cursor to top left of where you want the text box, and then hold left mouse and drag window to size you want, or just click once to add the text box, ( https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/...a-001f3ecd6cd6 )
_3) Make sure you are still in Design mode

_6) Give the Height and Width Properties that you want

_7) Add this coding:
Code:
Private Sub TextBox1_Change()
If TextBox1.Height < 139 Then Let TextBox1.Height = 139.8
Let TextBox1.Width = 368.25
End Sub
_8) De select the Design mode by clicking once on the ribbon Design Mode icon , until it is no longer highlighted

If that does not help, then I may not be able to help further, as I this was my first attempt at anything to do with a Text Box

The Text Box in this file, appears to do something like you are asking for:
