Default Dependant combo box in Excel form

Take a look at this and see if it will help you to organize your code.

Hi,

I've tried to modify the following code (originally intended for an
Outlook
form) to work in an Excel form. As I expected, it doesn't work, but I'm
not
entirely sure why. My guess is that either, I've put it in the wrong
place,
the sub name is wrong, or the code itself has a problem. The code is
supposed
to make one combo box (Employee) dependant on another (Department). For
example, if I selected the Marketing department from the Department combo
box, I would only get the options A Brock, A Brooks, and V Woodford.

What should I use as the Sub name?
Where is the code supposed to go?
Are there any other mistakes in the code that could be causing it not to
work?

North",
",")
Case "Marketing"
cboEmployee.List = Split("A Brock,V Woodford,A Brooks", ",")
End Select
End Sub
