    Sort combobox items alphabetically

    I have created a dependent combo box with dynamic list which updates its list automatically according to the user's selection....(as attached)
    however I wanted to have the items arranged in an alphabetical order. I don't want to sort the original entries. May I know how can I do that?


    Thanks a lot...

    It was only the simple matter of using Sort & Filtering so that the inputted data was in alphabetic order

    Sort.xlsm

    Cheers

    Don't thin so - sorry, unless you use VBA which I'm not into.
