How to edit an embedded textbox

Years ago I made an invoice form (actually I used an Excel template and modified it) that has an embedded text box containing 3 lines: address, city - state - zip, and a phone number. I want to change the phone number, but for the life of me I can't remember how I entered the info to begin with, nor can I figure out how to edit it. When I click on it the address bar reads =EMBED("Forms.TextBox.1", ""). Can anyone please tell me how to change the phone number in this textbox? This has gotten very frustrating. Thanks in advance.

    Good Morning sparkie78,

                I believe you will need to click on the Developer menu, then select Design Mode, then you should be able to select the textbox and right click on it. Select Properties, then in the Text field change (or where it shows up) change the default phone number. After making the changes deselect the Design Mode.
