Hello,
I'm very new to this and I've been reading and learning from everybody's posts here. To workaround the problem of data validation dropdown list's small font on request form I’m working on, I've come cross to this helpful page http://www.contextures.com/xlDataVal14.html, and I'm quite happy that it works on one of my dropdown lists, but not for all of them. I suspect there is something I need to change in the VBA code but couldn’t find answers on this forum... I'm hoping someone could help me please!
Some of my data validations are in merged cells and some are in single cells.
Also, I have a column of data validation which is based on the cell before, and the source formula looks like below.
=OFFSET(Brands!$B$1,MATCH(A32,Brands!$B:$B,0)-1,1,COUNTIF(Brands!$B:$B,A32),1)
Any input is greatly appreciated.
Private Sub TempCombo_KeyDown(ByVal _
KeyCode As MSForms.ReturnInteger, _
ByVal Shift As Integer)
'Hide combo box and move to next cell on Enter and Tab
Select Case KeyCode
Case 9
ActiveCell.Offset(0, 1).Activate
Case 13
ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Activate
Case Else
'do nothing
End Select
End Sub

Dim str As String
Dim cboTemp As OLEObject
Dim ws As Worksheet

'extra width to cover drop down arrow
AddW = 15
'extra height to cover cell
