Hi,
Please could someone advise how best to complete the following - I have a workbook with quite a lot of worksheets. To simplify navigation I would like to use three comboxes in the following way - Combobox 1 populated with a top level list of items. Combobox 2 populated with a sub list based on the top level item selected in combobox 1 Combobox 3 then populated with a sub list of items following selection in box 2. The items in combobox 3 to act as a hyperlink to the selected worksheet. For example, Combobox 1 holds the values Apples & Pairs, User selects Apples and Combobox 2 then populates with Baking, Cooking or Salad. User selects Cooking and selection hyperlinks to the worksheet named 'Cooking'. Thanks, Mickey ps. An alternative may be to just have a long list in one listbox, can I have it so that the chosen item then hyperlinks to the selected worksheet? |

I tackled this project about six months ago. I can email you the file
if you would like. I made it into a xlAddin and used a class module to tap into application events so I can use it for any workbook. Post your email here if you would like me to send you the finished work.

lower-left corner of the workbook? "Mickey" wrote: Hi, Please could someone advise how best to complete the following - I have a workbook with quite a lot of worksheets.

Hi Charlie,
The wb holds plus 60 ws hence I need to find an easier meethod that will work for some 600 users. I have a hyperlinked index but it is getting unwieldly. Thanks, Mickey "Charlie" wrote in message ...

Hi,
That sounds worth lookingh at, I'll email you off line so as to avoid too much spam from email harvesters. Thanks, Mickey "Die_Another_Day" wrote in message ps.com...

How about this from Debra Dalgleish's site:
http://contextures.com/xlToolbar01.html You could modify it to do what you want with the multiple comboboxes--or just leave it as is and have it work with any workbook.
