Default Combobox linked to Custom Views

Hi Dave,

I might be missing some declarations. But here it is. Thank you for your
help!
Dim cboView As ComboBox

Option Explicit
Private Sub Workbook_Open()

With Worksheets("Sheet1").cboView
.Clear 'existing options
.AddItem "(All)"
.AddItem "A"
.AddItem "B"
.AddItem "C"
.AddItem "D"
.AddItem "E"
.AddItem "F"
End With

End Sub


Option Explicit
Private Sub cboView_Change()


If cboView.Value = "(All)" Then
ActiveWorkbook.CustomViews("All").Show

ElseIf cboView.Value = "A" Then
ActiveWorkbook.CustomViews("A").Show

ElseIf cboView.Value = "B" Then
ActiveWorkbook.CustomViews("B").Show

ElseIf cboView.Value = "C" Then
ActiveWorkbook.CustomViews("C").Show

ElseIf cboView.Value = "D" Then
ActiveWorkbook.CustomViews("D").Show

ElseIf cboView.Value = "E" Then
ActiveWorkbook.CustomViews("E").Show

ElseIf cboView.Value = "F" Then
ActiveWorkbook.CustomViews("F").Show

End If
End Sub

What's the name of the worksheet that owns the combobox?

What's the name of the combobox that you want to use?

If you changed the code, post what you used and indicate what line caused the
error.

Thank you for the help but I still get a run-time error 91, saying that
object variable or with block is not set.
Can you advise?

Thank you.

I would add the options to the combobox a single time--maybe in the
workbook_open event?

Option Explicit
Private Sub Workbook_Open()

With Worksheets("Sheet1").bgCmbox
.Clear 'existing options
.AddItem "(All)"
.AddItem "A"
.AddItem "B"
.AddItem "C"
.AddItem "D"
.AddItem "E"
.AddItem "F"
End With

End Sub

Then since you're using the same options as the custom view names, you can use
something like this in the combobox change event:

Option Explicit
Private Sub bgCmbox_Change()

On Error Resume Next
Me.Parent.CustomViews(bgCmbox.Value).Show
If Err.Number < 0 Then
Err.Clear
MsgBox "Design error!"
End If
On Error GoTo 0

End Sub

Hello, I have trouble with linking combobox selection to the custom views
I've created. Please help!

In advance, thank you.

I created an ActiveX control combobox and have teh following code:
Dim bgCmbox As ComboBox
Private Sub ComboBox1_Change()

'With Worksheets(1)
Dim bgCmbox As ComboBox

bgCmbox.AddItem " ", 1
bgCmbox.AddItem "(All)", 2
bgCmbox.AddItem "A", 3
bgCmbox.AddItem "B", 4
bgCmbox.AddItem "C", 5
bgCmbox.AddItem "D", 6
bgCmbox.AddItem "E", 7
bgCmbox.AddItem "F", 8

If bgCmbox.Value = "(All)" Then
ActiveWorkbook.CustomViews("All").Show

ElseIf bgCmbox.Value = "A" Then
ActiveWorkbook.CustomViews("A").Show

ElseIf bgCmbox.Value = "B" Then
ActiveWorkbook.CustomViews("B").Show

ElseIf bgCmbox.Value = "C" Then
ActiveWorkbook.CustomViews("C").Show

ElseIf bgCmbox.Value = "D" Then
ActiveWorkbook.CustomViews("D").Show

ElseIf bgCmbox.Value = "E" Then
ActiveWorkbook.CustomViews("E").Show

ElseIf bgCmbox.Value = "F" Then
ActiveWorkbook.CustomViews("F").Show

End If
End Sub
