Hello,
I've been having trouble with my ActiveX ComboBoxes on my excel spreadsheet. I am not using the ComboBox on a UserForm, it's just on my sheet. Here is the situation:
I have a ComboBox whose chosen value will trigger my VBA to either hide or unhide rows which contain other ComboBoxes. I quickly realized that ComboBoxes don't hide well when the row is hidden. I have tried making Visible = False then hiding the row. This works great, but when the row is unhid and I click on the dropdown in my previously hidden ComboBox, the dropdown just flashes. I can't get my ComboBox to display the contents of my dropdown. The only (unacceptable) workaround I found is to put the sheet in Design Mode, move the ComboBox, turn off Design Mode, click the dropdown...and now my list is there. This solution is not acceptable b/c my ComboBox is in the wrong spot and I certainly can't expect my users to do this in order to have a valid dropdown.
I appreciate any thoughts you might have as to what's going on and how to fix it.
Thank you kindly!
