something like

lc=cells(rows.count,"b").end(xlup).row
cboTariffNo.value=Cells(lc, 2).Offset(0,0)
txtDescription.Value = cells(lc,2).Offset(0, 1)
etc

work without problem some times it goes to the last record even if the

'check for last item
Workbooks("Declaration Pro.xls").Worksheets("Classification").Activate
Range("B5").Select
If ActiveCell.Value < "" Then
Do
If IsEmpty(ActiveCell) = False Then
ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Select
End If
Loop Until IsEmpty(ActiveCell) = True
ActiveCell.Offset(-1, 0).Select
End If
'load controls with last item's value------------
cboTariffNo.Value = ActiveCell.Value
txtDescription.Value = ActiveCell.Offset(0, 1).Value
txtItemFob.Value = ActiveCell.Offset(0, 4).Value
cboCPC.Value = ActiveCell.Offset(0, 18).Value
txtSupplQuantity.Value = ActiveCell.Offset(0, 19).Value
cboCountryOfOrigin.Value = ActiveCell.Offset(0, 20).Value
txtNoPackage.Value = ActiveCell.Offset(0, 21).Value
cboPackageType.Value = ActiveCell.Offset(0, 22).Value
cboEnvSurChar.Value = ActiveCell.Offset(0, 25).Value
txtNetWeight.Value = ActiveCell.Offset(0, 26).Value
lblItemNo.Caption = ActiveCell.Offset(0, -1)
