Default MatchRequired - how to trap the error when a matching entry is not input


Hello guys,

This is my first post here, and I'm wondering if anyone can help me.

I have a simple excel form with a combo box whose MatchRequire
property is set to True.

I would like the user to receive a more user-friendly message than th
"invalid property value" that comes as standard, but I don't know ho
to trap the error because I don't know which event is firing when th
error occurs - I've tried my error handler in the "Before Update"
"Exit" and a few other events associated with the combo box, but to n
avail.

Can anyone suggest a solution?

Thanks,

Ti
