    Re: Combo box help

    Try this it currently works in Excel 2010 Keep in mind I am using a User Form not an active x control within the spread sheet.

    This will load your first combo box with a list

    Code[Private Sub cb_scentsy_invntry_Load()
    Dim i As Long, j As Long
    Dim colList As Collection
    Dim Lastrow As String

    Lastrow = Worksheets("sheetNAMEhere").Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row

    Set colList = New Collection

    With Worksheets("sheetNAMEhere")
    For i = 2 To Lastrow
    On Error Resume Next
    colList.Add .Cells(i, 1).Value, CStr(.Cells(i, 1))
    Next i

    For j = 1 To colList.Count
    Me.cb_scentsy_invntry.AddItem colList(j)
    Next j
    End With
    End Sub


    Private Sub cb_scentsy_invntry_Change()
    Dim Lastrow As Integer
    Dim x As Long
    Dim myVal As String

    myVal = me.Combo Box1 Name.Value

    'loop through Column B
    Lastrow = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("SheetNAMEhere").Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row

    'clear combobox
    Me.cb_prdt_nme.Clear

    'adds all parts related to the choice in Combobox1
    For x = 2 To Lastrow
    If myVal = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("SheetNameHere").Cells(x, 1) Then
    Me.cb_prdt_nme.AddItem ThisWorkbook.Sheets("SheetNAMEhere").Cells(x, 2)
    End If
    Next x

    End Sub]Code
