Default ComboBox Code Problems

Your address? This is a 682K file.

Yes. It was a very basic macro, just a simple Msgbox, but it launched fine.

The only other suggestion that I have is to send me your workbook offline.

Bob,
You actually launch a macro? I have copied/pasted back and forth between
the macro and the cell so I know the macro name matches. I've looked in

the
ComboBox properties for a solution, but find nothing inspiring. Do you

have
any suggestions? I you have tested successfully, I must have a basic

setting
somewhere that obstructs macro execution...

As I say, the code works, I tested it. It does suggest some disconnect
between the actual name and the name in your list.

NG wrap-around is the way that newsgroups force a new line after a

certain
amount of characters. In text this is no problem, but it can cause

problems
when it splits a line of code over two lines.

Yes, this is a controls ComboBox.

I place "navigation" macros in a separate module when they are used on
multiple sheets (to differentiate from a macro located in a worksheet
module). Here is an example on one listed for the ComboBox. To make

sure
the
code and the macro name exactly matched, I copy/pasted the first line

of
the
macro into the cell where the "case" code would look.

Sub GoToTFMWorksheetPage1()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Sheets("TFM Worksheet Page 1").Select
Application.Goto Reference:=Range("A1"), Scroll:=True
Application.Goto Reference:=Range("B100"), Scroll:=False
ActiveWindow.Zoom = 100
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

In way of learning - what is meant by "NG wrap-around?"

Another thought, do the subs have arguments (parameters)?

Hi Bob,
You were right - the compile error cleared. I also made a

correction
in
the ranges - F1:F86 to F81:F86, etc - which is allowing the

hyperlink
case
to
work properly. The macro case is not working though - Runtime

error
1004:
The macro 'Sub GoTo.....()' cannot be found. Macro names, located

in
Module
2 because they operate for all worksheets, are correct
(recopied/pasted
names, and retested). The entire line:
Application.Run _
Range("G81:G86").Cells(ComboBox1.ListIndex + 1,
1).Value

is highlighted yellow. With the "Range("G81......).Value"

poriton
proven
correct for the hyperlink case, Excel must object to the
Application.Run
syntax. ???

ThisWorkbook.FollowHyperlink _

Looking at it again, I think that this might be what you

want

Private Sub ComboBox1_Click()
With ThisWorkbook.ActiveSheet.Range("A79")
Select Case Range("F1:F86").Cells(ComboBox1.ListIndex,
1).Value
Case "Hyperlink"
ThisWorkbook.FollowHyperlink
Range("G1:G86").Cells(ComboBox1.ListIndex + 1, 1).Value
Case "Run Macro"
Application.Run
Range("G1:G86").Cells(ComboBox1.ListIndex +
1,
1).Value
Case Else
MsgBox "Other Action not currently supported.",
vbInformation +
vbOKOnly, "Info"
End Select
End With
End Sub

The following code is held in ComboBox1 click event. It

is
intended
when
the
user clicks on one of the choices, either a hyperlink or

macro
is
executed.
I'm getting a compile error: Argument not optional. On

the
fifth
line,
the
following code is highlighted: .FollowHyperlink

Can someone suggest a fix?

Private Sub ComboBox1_Click()
With ThisWorkbook.ActiveSheet.Range("A79")
Select Case (.Offset(ComboBox1.ListIndex, 4).Value)
Case "Hyperlink"

ThisWorkbook.FollowHyperlink.Offset(ComboBox1.List Index,
6).Value
Case "Run Macro"
Application.Run.Offset(ComboBox1.ListIndex,
6).Value
Case Else
MsgBox "Other Action not currently

supported.",
vbInformation
+
vbOKOnly, "Info"
End Select
End With
End Sub
Operating addresses:

Cell Function
A79 ComboBox Linked Cell
A81:A86 ListFill Range (Text appearing in ComboBox)
F81:F86 Action (Text: Hyperlink, or, Run Macro)
G81:G86 Value (Hyperlinks, or, Macro names)
