    Displaying results based on Combo box value EXCEL 2010

    I have a problem with using a combo box in Excel 2010.
    I have created two combo box. One of them is displaying a list of location while another one is displaying a list of occupation.
    I need to display results from an employee table when user selects both of the options from the combo box.
    How do I do that? I can't read the value stored inside combo box.
    Thanks !

    hi,
    I'm not sure what you want, could you upload a test file with yr comboboxes and some examples and the result you want?
    maybe someone might have a solution for you!

    Simpler to use Data Validation - the List feature
    Hope that helps.

    What's wrong with using AutoFilter?
    Hope that helps.

    I really don't know. If i can, i would LOVE TO USE AUTOFILTER. but, my homework has to do in the other manner.
    I wouldn't burden myself if I can use autofiler.
