How are you trying to trigger the macro?

It would seem the linked cell doesn't trigger the Worksheet_Change
event as I had assumed it would. So that leaves 2 possibilities:
ComboBox_Change event (where you will need to check that a match has
been generated - .ListIndex=0), or Worksheet_Calculate with a formula
somewhere referencing the linked cell.

If you can't make it work, please post the macro you are trying to run.
