Default why does combobox lose choices

Sounds like an unexpected sheet is Active when you run your code and perhaps
it has your list starting in A1 rather than A2. After you run your code
and get a truncated list, do F2 and select RoleList and see where you end
up. Does it highlight 4 cells with all the choices?

Didn't resolve the issue list choices are Admin, Engineer, Manager, and
Planner but Engineer, Manager, and Planner show up when ran from the show
command in the sheet macro, but all 4 show up when I step through the

form.

Try changing

Range("A2:" + ActiveCell.Offset(NRec - 1, 0).Address).Select

Range("A2").Resize(Nrec,1).Select

Working on an process where a user enters their id in a form to

determine
what role they will have in the application (admin, engineer, manager,

etc.),
if a single role is found for the user then it continues on with no

selection
process, but if the user has multiple roles they can take I have the

form
display a combobox for them to select their role for this process.

Problem the first choice always seems to disappear from the drop down

list
if I run it from excel, if I step through the form in VB editor the

list
is
ok all choices appear.

The spread sheet always has all of the role entries, the range name

list
always includes all entries, but when the form is called from excel

using

Load UserEntry
UserEntry.Show

what ever the first choice is in the list disappears from the list

My code once the userid has been entered is as follows

Beginning:
If UserName.Value = "" Then
ErrorOk "User Name must be entered to continue"
Exit Sub
Else
'
' Verify that the user exists in the database
WUserId = UserName.Value
Found = False
dbName = "MLMBudget.mdb"
tbName = "Personnel"
WSql = "Select UserId From Personnel Where UserId=""" +

WUserId +
""""
VerifyEntry
'
' If user id not found have them enter their profile and select roles
If Not Found Then
Load UserUpdate
UserUpdate.Show
End If
'
' If user id found or entered
' Select the data from the table and place on the sheet to

create
a
name list
tbName = "UserPriv"
WSql = "Select Role From UserPriv Where UserId=""" + WUserId +

""""
QueryTable 2, 1
'
' Create the name list and display combobox for selection
If NRec 1 Then
Range("A2:" + ActiveCell.Offset(NRec - 1,

0).Address).Select
Selection.Name = "RoleList"
Role.Visible = True
Label2.Visible = True
Else
Range("A2").select
WRole = ActiveCell.Value
UserEntry.Hide
Unload UserEntry
End If
End If
End Sub



Is there a property flag or some setting that would cause this?
