Hello

I have a form with a combo box that I show when the workbook is opened. I
set the RowSource property in the Intialize event of the UserForm using

the
following code:

'Load the turbine list box
cboTurbines.RowSource = "Turbines"

Where "Turbines" is a name defined within the current workbook.

My problem occurs when I save the workbook as an Add-In (XLA). I install

it
as an addin into another workbook and from within a procedure run the
following code:

frmInput.Show

When the initialize event runs with the same code above to populate the
ComboBox, I get the error message "Could not set the RowSource property.
Invalid proerty value" when trying to set the RowSource property of a
ComboBox.

I have tried to set the RowSource property to the following:

'Load the turbine list box
cboTurbines.RowSource = shtTurbines.Range("Turbines").Range.Value

With no success.

Would appreciate any help i could get to propery populate the ComboBox

when
the workbook is saved as and Excel Add-In.

Thanks
Tom
