Default Excel 2000 ComboBox Code Change event

Use:
Application.Range(cBox.ListFillRange).Cells
(cBox.Value).Value

An alternative to using VBA code here is to link the
dropdown value to a cell, then use that value in a lookup
formula to get the values to the Daily sheet.

Cheers,
Dave.

Hi all!

I've made some progress. Surprisingly. I stole some

code from a 2001 post
by Tom Ogilvy, and it has erased the Object Required

error. I have no idea
what Application.Caller is, but it seems to have done the

trick. So thanks
Tom.

The problem I'm having now is the value being returned

seems to be the Index
value, not the date value that the user is selecting. I

think I can work
around that by using the Index value to find the correct

row instead of
using the Find statement, but, I was wondering if there

was a way to get the
Date value.

cheers,
Matt.


Sub DropDown15_Change()
Dim cBox As DropDown
Dim sName As String

sName = Application.Caller
Set cBox = ActiveSheet.DropDowns(sName)

'MsgBox DailyMaintenancePerformance.xls!("Drop Down

15").Value
MsgBox cBox.Value

Sheets("Log").Select
Selection.Find(What:=cBox.Value, _
After:=ActiveCell, LookIn:=xlFormulas, _
LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByColumns,

SearchDirection:=xlNext, _
MatchCase:=False).Activate
iRow = ActiveCell.Row
iCol = ActiveCell.Column
Sheets("Daily").G9.Value = Cells(iRow, iCol + 1).Value
Sheets("Daily").G10.Value = Cells(iRow, iCol +

2).Value
Sheets("Daily").G11.Value = Cells(iRow, iCol +

3).Value
Sheets("Daily").G12.Value = Cells(iRow, iCol +

4).Value
Sheets("Daily").G15.Value = Cells(iRow, iCol +

5).Value
Sheets("Daily").G16.Value = Cells(iRow, iCol +

6).Value

Sheets("Daily").Select

End Sub

Hi all!

I have a Form ComboBox called "Drop Down 15" on a

worksheet called "Daily"
in a workbook called "DailyMaintenancePerformace". The

source for the
list
is on a worksheet called "Log". The source values are

date values, which
is
why I'm using a Form object and not the Toolbox object.

I would like to have the user choose a date, and then

have various cell
values on the Daily sheet populated by cell values from

the corresponding
date from the Log sheet. The code I'm using is

attached at the end of
this
note.

The error I'm getting is 424 - Object Required. I'm

receiving the error
on
the MsgBox line. I've done some online searching, but

nothing is being
returned that I think is useful.

Any assistance greatly appreciated.

cheers,
Matt.

LookAt:=xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByColumns,

SearchDirection:=xlNext,
_
MatchCase:=False).Activate
iRow = ActiveCell.Row
iCol = ActiveCell.Column
Sheets("Daily").G9.Value = Cells(iRow, iCol +

1).Value
Sheets("Daily").G10.Value = Cells(iRow, iCol +
