I'm not quite sure I understand, but you could cycle through all the comboboxes
and check to see if it is in C6.

Option Explicit
Sub testme()
Dim OLEObj As OLEObject
Dim FoundIt As Boolean

FoundIt = False
With Worksheets("sheet1")
For Each OLEObj In .OLEObjects
If TypeOf OLEObj.Object Is MSForms.ComboBox Then
If Intersect(OLEObj.TopLeftCell, .Range("c6")) Is Nothing Then
'keep looking
Else
FoundIt = True
Exit For
End If
End If
Next OLEObj
End With
If FoundIt = True Then
MsgBox FoundIt & vbLf & OLEObj.Name
Else
MsgBox "not found in C6!"
End If
End Sub

Thanks Dave,

My problem is that this combo box is on a pivot table. I'm not sure if I can
refer to the pivot table cell and get the cell address. There are a bunch of
comb boxes (which are dimension filters) to choose from.

It might be easier to look at the combobox and find out where it is.

If the combobox is from the control toolbox toolbar:
msgbox worksheets("sheet2").oleobjects("combobox1").tople ftcell.address

If the combobox (AKA DropDown) is from the Forms toolbar:
msgbox worksheets("sheet2").dropdowns("drop down 1").topleftcell.address

I have a pivot table that can move the location of a combo box depending on
how many rows it returns. Is there any way to determine which cell the combo
box is in.
Something like:
For x = to beginRange to EndRange
if range("C:6") is Combo then ....

Thanks
