    Getting a combo/list box to populate based on the other

    New User here,

    Hopefully someone can help me try and sort a problem that my head just can't get around. I have the USer form set up and working etc. However I would like to know how to populate a combo / list box to populate based on the selection in another.

    I have a worksheet with 2 colums i.e Column 1 = Report Name, Column 2= How the report is output. So in essence A2 is directly related to B2 and are dependent on nothing else.

    I just can't get this working in VBE.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Niall

    Note the different way of loading the ComboBoxes - it's much neater & more efficient
