Selected item in combobox at DropButtonClick
Hi Peter,
It works but it has some strange side-effects in that the years get
highlighted on mouse-over and
clicking the years then doesn't work as expected.
I have this combobox on a userform that also has a MonthView and on clicking
the year in the combobox
that particular year should show in the MonthView and that doesn't happen
anymore with this code.
All this is to achieve only minor cosmetic improvement and it looks it isn't
worth all this trouble.

Actually I didn't quite follow, or rather I didn't read "On
DropButtonClick " carefully. Think this will require an Ontime macro -
Private Sub ComboBox1_DropButtonClick()
ComboBox1.ListIndex = 96
Application.OnTime Now, "aaa"
End Sub
Private Sub UserForm_Initialize()
Dim arrYears(1 To 111)
For i = 1 To 111
arrYears(i) = Year(Date) - (101 - i)
Next i
With ComboBox1
.List = arrYears
.ListIndex = 100
.ListWidth = 48
.ColumnWidths = 48
End With
End Sub
' in a normal module
Sub aaa()
UserForm1.ComboBox1.ListIndex = 100
End Sub
Regards,
Peter T

If I follow, this worked for me
Private Sub UserForm_Click()
Dim nIdx As Long
Dim arrYears(1 To 111)
For i = 1 To 111
arrYears(i) = Year(Date) - (101 - i)
Next i
nIdx = 100
With ComboBox1
.List = arrYears
.ListIndex = IIf(nIdx - 4 0, nIdx - 4, 0)
.ListWidth = 48
.ColumnWidths = 48
.DropDown
.ListIndex = nIdx
End With
End Sub

On a userform I have a combobox with a number of integer numbers that
are years.
On DropButtonClick I would like to have a certain item (the current
year) selected and
have that item at about the middle (height-wise) of the combobox.
The combobox is populated like this:
For i = 1 To 111
arrYears(i) = Year(Date) - (101 - i)
Next i
With ComboBox1
.List = arrYears
.ListIndex = 100
.ListWidth = 48
.ColumnWidths = 48
End With
How could I do this without using SendKeys or the Windows API?
