Hi
try something like the following:
Sub count_rows()
Dim RowNdx As Long
Dim LastRow As Long

LastRow = worksheets("ABC").Cells(Rows.Count, "AR").End(xlUp).row
For RowNdx = LastRow To 1 Step -1
If Cells(RowNdx, "AR").Value < "" Then
ComboBox15.AddItem CStr(Cells(RowNdx, "AR").Value)
End If
Next RowNdx
End Sub

Hi Ships,

Even if you got the syntax correct, it would not work as you are counting
the columns in a range. As the range is just one column, this would always
be 1. You need to count the rows, like so

Worksheets("Sheet1").Activate
For i = 1 To ActiveSheet.Cells(Rows.Count, "AR").End(xlUp).Row
ComboBox15.AddItem CStr(Sheet1.Range("AR" + CStr(i)).Value)
Next

a slightly easier method...assumes the ActiveX combo...

Sub SetCombo()

With Worksheets("Sheet1")
.ComboBox15.ListFillRange = _
"E2:E" & .Range("E5000").End(xlUp).Row
End With

End Sub

This sets the combo to a table starting in row 2 with an
indeterminate number of rows

Hi Bob

As U said that I am trying to count the rows, I chaged the code to following
Dim c As Intege
Worksheets("ABC").Activat
ActiveSheet.Range("AR:AR").Selec
c1 = Selection.Rows.Coun
For c = 2 To c
ComboBox15.AddItem CStr(Sheet1.Range("AR" + CStr(c)).Value
Next

But now it is giving error on lin
For c = 2 To c

But it is not giving error when I change the code t

Dim c As Intege
Worksheets("ABC").Activat
ActiveSheet.Range("AR:AR").Selec
c1 = MsgBox(Selection.Rows.Count, , no
For c = 2 To c
ComboBox15.AddItem CStr(Sheet1.Range("AR" + CStr(c)).Value
Next

How does adding a msgbox statement change it
Also if I change the code to, it gives error on "ComboBox15.AddItem CStr(Sheet1.Range("AR" + CStr(c)).Value)

Dim c As Lon
Worksheets("ABC").Activat
ActiveSheet.Range("AR:AR").Selec
c1 = Selection.Rows.Coun
For c = 2 To c
ComboBox15.AddItem CStr(Sheet1.Range("AR" + CStr(c)).Value
Next

Hi Shilps,

I don't know why it gives an error, but it is not good as it returns all of
the rows, that is 65536. You don't want this. What you want is

c1 = Cells(Rows.Count, "AR").End(xlUp).Row

try that and see if you still a combo error.
