Combobox Exact Match control
I have a combobox in a userform that has say 10 list items. When the
userform pops up the combobox is initially empty. I can then enter any of the 10 list items in the box. The problem is it will also let me choose nothing... just leave it blank. How can I change it so that one of the 10 list items HAS to be selected so you can't just leave it blank? |

you can set the listindex to 0 (zero) which is like selecting the first item
alternatively set the combobox TEXT value to an item in the list "Bishop" wrote: I have a combobox in a userform that has say 10 list items. When the userform pops up the combobox is initially empty.

I don't have a listindex option under properties. I do have the following
though: listrows set to 8 liststyle set to 0 listwidth set to 0 tabindex set to 1 topindex set to -1 Should I be looking somewhere else?
