Since everything appears to be based on having the value in C3 of the sheet
CountySelect, then you need to put it there.
Private Sub Combobox1_Click()
Worksheets("CountySelect").Range("C3").Value = Combobox1.Value
Worksheets("Places").Range("G2").Calculate
Worksheets("Places").Range("PlacesDatabase") _
.AdvancedFilter Action:=xlFilterCopy, _
CriteriaRange:=Sheets("Places").Range("G1:G2"), _
CopyToRange:=Range("B40:C40"), Unique:=False
End Sub

Otherwise you need to change you approach, such as putting it directly in G2

Private Sub Combobox1_Click()
Worksheets("Places").Range("G2").Value = Combobox1.Value
Worksheets("Places").Range("PlacesDatabase") _
.AdvancedFilter Action:=xlFilterCopy, _
CriteriaRange:=Sheets("Places").Range("G1:G2"), _
CopyToRange:=Range("B40:C40"), Unique:=False
End Sub

but I don't see where cell C3 comes into play?

I currently have a worksheet that uses a Data validation List called
"counties". When the user selects a "county" the following code runs
on
the
sheet.
'(Target.Row/Column is C3, on countyselect sheet)

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Row = 3 And Target.Column = 3 Then
'calculate criteria cell in case calculation mode is manual
Worksheets("Places").Range("G2").Calculate
Worksheets("Places").Range("PlacesDatabase") _
.AdvancedFilter Action:=xlFilterCopy, _
CriteriaRange:=Sheets("Places").Range("G1:G2"), _
CopyToRange:=Range("B40:C40"), Unique:=False
End If
End Sub

I used the code from one of contexures.com files.
It populates the current sheet at location B40 with information from
another
sheet called ("Places") Based on which county the users selected.

My Goal is to put this onto the userform I have in the workbook. Thus
far
I
have created the combobox on the userform, and I used the Rowsource
properties to populate the combobox. Counties!A1:A25 (a sheet with the
listings).

I have moved part of the code over to the userform combobox, but of
course
nothing happens for me. I don't program alot in vba, but use examples
of
code
to achive my task.
How do I get the combobox to do the same thing that is taking place on
the
worksheet when "C3" is changed.

Private Sub cboCountySelect_Change()

End Sub

Thanks very much, I appreciate your efforts in helping me.
