I am copying a value from a spreadsheet cell to a combobox
FormInput.ComboBoxRim1.Text = Range("d17"); text in d17 is Bo
The text Bob appears in the combobox correctly but the cursor location is on a blank space to the right of b thus Bob is not found in the dropdown list
If I enter the combobox manually and backspace so the cursor is on top of b then all other code works properly

Is there any way to paste from a spreadsheet to a combobox form and have the text recognize that it is contained in the list array
