Default 2-column combo box via code...

You have to set the combobox ColumnCount property to 2.

I followed Tom Ogilvy's suggestions in another thread and set up a

1-column
combo that works fine. Now I'm trying to modify the code for 2 columns but
with no luck. I only get 1 column of data in the combo.

The case is as follows : I need to "read" range "D_Projects" and load
"Sheet10.Ergo_Combo" whenever column2 of D_Projects is equal to
"C_Rep_Customer_Code" with a Code and a Description for the user to choose
from.

Please take a look at the code and tell me what is wrong.

Bear in mind that I'm trying to set up the first row as titles / headings.

If it's not too much please advise on how I can replace the full reference

to
Sheet10.Ergo_Combo with a short local object (as is the case with "Cell"),
since
D_Projects and Ergo_Combo are on different sheets and I need full

reference.

Thanks for your help

Dim Cell As Range

Sheet10.Ergo_Combo.Clear
Sheet10.Ergo_Combo.ColumnCount = 2
Sheet10.Ergo_Combo.AddItem
Sheet10.Ergo_Combo.List(0, 1) = "Code"
Sheet10.Ergo_Combo.List(0, 2) = "Description"

For Each Cell In Range("D_Projects").Columns(2).Cells
If Cell.Value = Range("C_Rep_Customer_Code").Value Then
Sheet10.Ergo_Combo.AddItem Cell.Offset(0, 3).Value
Sheet10.Ergo_Combo.List(Sheet10.Ergo_Combo.ListCou nt - 1, 2) =
Cell.Offset(0, 1).Value
End If
Next

If Sheet10.Ergo_Combo.ListCount = 1 Then
MsgBox ("No entries")
Sheet10.Ergo_Combo.Enabled = False
Else
Sheet10.Ergo_Combo.Enabled = True
End If
