Assuming the combobox is userform based:

wks.Cells(iRow, 4).Value = "S" & cboStallion.Value

The main problem was that Excel thinks an entry preceeded with an equals
sign (=) is a formula. It therefore calculates it which raises an error.

You should also have excluded the combo's value from the quotations when
concatenating. Inclusion of the leading equals sign when adding text to a
cell is for intentionally adding a formula. I don't know what the single
right parentheses was for. Typo I assume.

Not sure why this is proving to me so hard, what is wrong with this

wks.Cells(iRow, 4).Value = "= S & cboStallion)"

cboStallion is my combo box, i want it to fill in the database looking
something like:
S6
