Code below is on the sheet where I've put ActiveX combo box named cboOthProv,
for which the linked cell is A1. If I put a stop on the very first line,
then step through, at line Range("A1") = "" execution jumps back to
the start, as if events had never been disabled.

Isn't the change to the combo box through its linked cell an event? And if
it is, then why doesn't Application.EnableEvents = False keep it from
triggering the combo box change code to begin again? This is seriously
sending me around the bend. Any clues/advice are most welcome.

Private Sub cboOthProv_Change()

Application.EnableEvents = False
Set rg = ActiveCell
t = Range("A1")
Range("A1") = ""
Select Case t
Case "Hide unselected": HideNoPicks
Case "Show unselected": UnhideNoPicks
Case "Renewal Changes": BlueNoBlue
Case "Hide Accumulators": AccHiding
Case "Show all Accums": AccUnhiding
End Select
rg.Activate
Application.EnableEvents = True


End Sub
