Default Userform List Box content not visible?

Hi I have a Userform with listboxes they were working fine. However, going
back forth and making changes etc. two of my listboxes are not visible. The
properties are set to "True" for Visible. I tried entering the Control
Source and Row Source but it gives me a error message, "Could not set the
Control Source/Row Source property. Invalid property value." Can someone
please help me with this not sure what I did wrong. Thank you in advance for
any help you can provide.

**Exactly** what did you try entering for the Control Source and Row Source?

if rowsource is like this
A6:A16
then it will pick up from whatever is the active sheet - so nothing gets
loaded

instead use
sheet1!A6:A16

Thank you for responding. I have in the Row Source A1:A150. It will not let
me add anything else like you suggested Sheet1A1:A150. If I try entering
"Sheet1", it will give the same error message. Could not set the Row Source
property. Invalid property value." However, I have the list option set to
1. Only the checkboxes are visible there is no text. Is there any thing
else that can be wrong? thank you.

You missed the exclamation mark (bang symbol) between the sheet name and the
range address...

Sheet1!A1:A10

I did include it in my property. I am sorry I did not type it in my reply.
Any other suggestions?

I figured it out!! I was putting in the Row Source Sheet1!A1:A150. It did
not accept this. I had to put the sheet name like "Specialties!A1:a150"!!!

Thank you both for help and patience. Have a great day!
