I've created a custom commandbar that has a combobox and
a button. I want to be able to choose a value from the
combobox, click the button, and have that run a macro
based on the value that is in the ComboBox. Does anyone
know how to return this value?

Thanks for your help!
Kevin

Application.CommandBars.FindControl(Tag:="cbo_tag" ).Text

if the tag property was used.

Tim,

Thanks for the help. I've never used the tag property
before, but I'll look into that and try to make this work.

Thanks again,
Kevin

So when you create the combobox:

With .Controls.Add(Type:=msoControlComboBox, Temporary:=True)
.AddItem "something"
.AddItem "something else"
.OnAction = "MyMacro"
.Tag = "cbo_tag"
End With
