Got it......sorted now.

I checked Combobox1 properties, RowSourse:

It was reading: =list!a1:a18

it should be: =list!a1:b18

typing error.

Thanks

That's not it.

"UserForm_Initialize" is the name of the procedure that excel looks for when the
userform is shown/loaded. You can't change that name.

It's just like the worksheet/workbook/application event names. You can't change
these, either.

But I don't have a guess why the code doesn't work for you.

Abit embarassing!! I never indicated what userform it was. In this case "4"

Private Sub UserForm4_Initialize()
With Me.ComboBox1
.RowSource =
Worksheets("list").Range("A1:B18").Address(externa l:=False)
.ColumnCount = 2
.BoundColumn = 1
.ColumnWidths = "22;0" 'hide the second column
End With
End Sub

I get a debug warning on the following code when run:
Private Sub ComboBox1_Change()
With Me.ComboBox1
If .ListIndex < 0 Then
Me.TextBox3.Value = ""
Else
Me.TextBox3.Value = .List(.ListIndex, 1)
End If
End With
End Sub

The following line gets high lighted in yellow:

Me.TextBox3.Value = .List(.ListIndex, 1)

None at all.

Are you going to share your code and the actual error message that shows up?

And what did you do to get the combobox to work? I'm curious why it didn't work
before.

I have just managed to get the combobox to work, it now shows the list!
But running the code I get the Debug warning with the following line high
lighted in yellow:

Me.TextBox3.Value = .List(.ListIndex, 1)

Any ideas Dave?

You sure you have something in A1:B18 of the List worksheet--especially the
column A?

Sorry dave to get back to you on an old question.
I have the following code you sent us last week.

Private Sub ComboBox1_Change()
With Me.ComboBox1
If .ListIndex < 0 Then
Me.TextBox3.Value = ""
Else
Me.TextBox3.Value = .List(.ListIndex, 1)
End If
End With
End Sub

Private Sub UserForm_Initialize()
With Me.ComboBox1
.RowSource =
Worksheets("list").Range("A1:B18").Address(externa l:=False)
.ColumnCount = 2
.BoundColumn = 1
.ColumnWidths = "22;0" 'hide the second column
End With
End Sub

The problem I am having now is when I select the combobox the list does not
appear yet I checked all the links but I cant find what is wrong.
What am I doing wrong!!!!???
