hi
is the forms combo box on the sheet????
if so you wont be able to set it. you would need a sheet combo box from the
control tool box. then use this code.
Sub setlfr()
Dim r As Range
Set r = Sheets("sheet2").Range("Num_DropDown")
ComboBox1.ListFillRange = r.Address
End Sub
iis the list fill range on another sheet than the combobox?
if so use this
ComboBox1.ListFillRange = r.Address(External:=True)

post back if i have mis understood.
