Select sheet from cell value
 

I would like to set the historyWks by the value in a cell.eg wks "Input"
Range D3. This would allow me to input the data to the selected sheet, as in
Rnd1, Rnd2 etc.

I think...

Change this line:
Set historyWks = Worksheets("Data")
to
Set historyWks = Worksheets("Input").range("D3").value

Or to add a bit of validity...

set historywks = nothing
on error resume next
Set historyWks = Worksheets("Input").range("D3").value
on error goto 0

if historywks is nothing then
msgbox "D3 on Input doesn't contain a good worksheet name"
exit sub

You have to put the name of a worksheet that already exists in that workbook in
D3 of the Input worksheet.

My first guess is that you mistyped the name (watch out for leading/trailing
embedded spaces).

or just type 1 in and still get the same errors.

Select sheet from cell value
 

If you type 1 in the cell and that cell is formatted as general, then the code
will use worksheets(1)--the leftmost worksheet.

If you're trying to put the data on a worksheet named 1, then use:

set historywks = nothing
on error resume next
Set historyWks = cstr(Worksheets("Input").range("D3").value)
on error goto 0

if historywks is nothing then
msgbox "D3 on Input doesn't contain a good worksheet name"
exit sub
end if

If that doesn't help...

What kind of combobox did you use?

Did you use a combobox from the Control toolbox toolbar?
Did you use a dropdown from the Forms toolbar?
Did you use data|validation?

What's in D3 and what's the name of the worksheet that you expected to be
populated--they have to match character by character (upper/lower case doesn't
matter, though).

Sorry Dave, still no joy. The sheets are named Rnd1, Rnd2 etc. Your code with
the Cstr generated a type mismatch, deleted Cstr and get an object required
mssage. Typing Rnd1 into box makes no diff, match perfectly. Combo from the
control t/b, nothing from Forms t/b and no validation.
