Hello Andy, thanks for your reply. I will use this VBA and see. I am sorry I couldn't upload a sample file for technical reasons. The file is in my work laptop with sensitive data and I am posting this from my phone.
I will try the VBA you posted, thanks a mill.
I also applied another VBA that sort of worked. I want to share it here.
I went back to the main reason why I wanted comboboxes and it was mainly because usual data validation dropdowns were too tiny to read for my team and the nice search function. So I looked up and found another VBA on internet and applied it. It sort of worked and replaced all my usual dropdowns with hidden comboboxes. The only problem with this is once you make a selection from one hidden combobox, whereever else you click with a hidden combobox, it shows you the last thing you selected from the first combobox at first. It is a bit weird but I guess it is not too bad.
I will paste the code I found elsewhere online, posted by a very helpful user called Skyyang - I hope it is not against site policy to share it here in case anyone else is looking for solutions for this issue.
First you place 1 combobox with list range in the worksheet that is full of other data validation lists. Then apply the following VBA code into the sheet module code. Right clicking on the sheet and applying it to its code worked for me.
After inserting the code, now when you click the drop down list cell, a combo box will be displayed, and font size in the drop down menu is increased as I needed. And the inserted combo box is hidden automatically.
I only increased the width of the box and changed it to 200. Thank you for checking my post and helping with this issue.
