I'm trying to make a ComboBox use several different lists from different
worksheets in the same workbook, with little success. If possible I would
like the lists to in alphabetic order regardless of which list they come from.

If the lists are never changing, probably the easisest way is to build
a sorted composite list and use this in the RowSource property of the
combo box.

If the lists are dynamic, then you'd need a bit of extra code to first
build the composite list, sort it and apply the new list to the
RowSource property.

You could modify it to loop through all your ranges (and make it a combobox).
