Default BeforeUpdate event for Combo box

Thanks for taking the time to read my question.

I have a combo box on one of the worksheets. Changing the
value in the combo box will affect many cells on the
worksheet. Therefore I would like to have a BeforeUpdate
event on the combo box where I would have a msgbox asking
if they are sure they really want to change the value.

I can get the Change event to fire, but not the
BeforeUpdate event. Any suggestions on how to get the
BeforeUpdate event to work?

Here is my code.

Thanks again,

Brad

MSForms.ReturnBoolean)
Dim answer As Variant

answer = MsgBox("Changing this value will delete the
current list of feeds, and numbers of birds per feed
stage. This will affect the Feed Stage Combo boxes on
this sheet. Do you wish to continue?", 36)
If answer = vbNo Then
Cancel = True
End If
End Sub
