i am using a combobox activex control with listfillrange of two columns of
data.
when i set the textcolumn property to 2 or 0 the combobox change event fires
when the workbook is closed. it does not fire if i set the textcolumn to 1 or
-1.
why?
i like to set the textcolumn = 2 to display the data in the 2nd col but i
dont want the
combobox to fire just because the user is closing the workbook.

can it be done?

Thank you for any help you can provide.

Weird Excel problem. The only thing I can think of is that you set a flag
in BeforeClose (since it runs before the combobox change event) and check it
in the change event code:
