How about something like this:

sub ExportChart    

      set cs = ActiveDocument.GetSheetObject("TX01")

    msgbox cs.GetText()

      set XLApp = CreateObject("Excel.Application")

      XLApp.Visible = True

      set XLDoc = XLApp.Workbooks.Add

    

      XLDoc.Sheets(1).name = "Exported text object"

      set XLSheet = XLDoc.Worksheets(1)

    

      XLSheet.Range("A1") = cs.GetText()        

End Sub

This will open a new excel file and store the value of the text object with ID TX01 in the cell A1.

Please let me know if this helps or ir you need something else.

Kind regards,

How are you exporting your text object?

If i right click on a text object, click send to excel it exports its value correctly not the ID.

Kind regards,
