How to set a text on a Editbox Ribbon via VBA (Excel)

Question

How can I set a text in a Ribbon Editbox? I can't find it on internet :/

I just can find examples of click event but nothing about set a text from a Sub.

So for example, I want something like this:

Sub settingText()
   editboxname = "my text"
end sub

The solution I found on this link: http://www.shulerent.com/2011/08/16/changing-the-value-of-an-editbox-office-ribbon-control-at-runtime/

Here is an example that I tested and it worked well:

'Global Variables:
Public MyRibbonUI As IRibbonUI
Public GBLtxtCurrentDate As String

Private Sub OnRibbonLoad(ribbonUI As IRibbonUI)

    Set MyRibbonUI = ribbonUI
    GBLtxtCurrentDate = ""

End Sub

Private Sub ocCurrentDate(control As IRibbonControl, ByRef text)

    GBLtxtCurrentDate = text
    MyRibbonUI.InvalidateControl (control.id)

End Sub

Private Sub onGetEbCurrentDate(control As IRibbonControl, ByRef text)
    text = GBLtxtCurrentDate
End Sub

Public Sub MyTest()
    'Here is an example which you are setting a text to the editbox
    'When you call InvalidateControl it is going to refresh the editbox, when it happen the onGetEbCurrentDate (which is the Gettext) will be called and the text will be atributed.
    GBLtxtCurrentDate = "09/09/2013"
    MyRibbonUI.InvalidateControl ("ebCurrentDate")
End Sub

      <tab id="Objects" label="Objects">
        <group id="grp" label="My Group">
          <editBox id="ebCurrentDate" label="Date" onChange="ocCurrentDate" getText="onGetEbCurrentDate"/>
        </group>
      </tab>
    </tabs>
  </ribbon>
</customUI>
