I am writing some VBA that changes the value in a control toolbox combobox,
but I don't want it to run the code assigned to changing the combobox ( it
clears it runs some other code and then changes it to a different value). I
therefore disabled enableevents, but it is still doing so. I have even put a
messagebox at the start of the combobox change event code to display the
enableevents status, and getting False back!

Is there anyway to avoid this, as surely the purpose of being able to
disable events is that this shouldn't happen.


I am using excel 2000 if that makes any difference.

Many thanks
