I would do it this way:

With ActiveSheet.ComboBox2
.Clear
.AddItem "Enter Quantity"
.ListIndex = 0
.Visible = True
.Activate
End With

i have the following code.

ComboBox2.Visible = True

I would like the "Enter Quantity" to be highlighted, so a number can be
entered without using the mouse.

Thanks
