    Post Retrieving data from a cell to combo box

    I a have list of data that changes whenever the values are retrieved from the database. I am trying to figure out how to retrieve the values from the cells from one worksheet and add it to the combo box in another sheet.

    Thanks

    Hi there!

    If you are using a Active x control Combobox, then you can simply assign a Named Range to the data you are looking to pull and then Assign that particular name to Combobox's ListFillRange property. It will make the combobox dynamic. As soon as your values are changed, the values in Combobox will be updated.

    Thanks,

    Hi Vikas,

    Can you please give me an example to how this might be done. I have never done this before.

    Thanks
