I want to add items to a combo box however I want to restrict the range to A3:A12. Also, I notice in the current code, when I click the drop down arrow, it displays the empty ranges. Is there a way to not show these ranges if the cells are empty? Can someone assist with this task. Thank you kindly.


Code:
Set rng = Range("A3", Range("A3").End(xlDown))For Each cell In rng.Cells
    cbName.AddItem cell.Value
Next cell

Waterfall charts in Excel?
Office 365 customers have access to Waterfall charts since late 2016. They were added to Excel 2019.
Try this:

This script only looks at range A3 To A12 like you asked for.
Code:
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
'Modified  11/7/2018  4:59:47 AM  EST
Dim r As Range
ComboBox1.Clear
    For Each r In Range("A3:A12")
        If r.Value <> "" Then ComboBox1.AddItem r.Value
    Next
End Sub

Now if you wanted the Range to be From A3 to the last value in column A you would use this:

Code:
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
'Modified  11/7/2018  5:04:08 AM  EST
Dim Lastrow As Long
Lastrow = Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
Dim r As Range
ComboBox1.Clear
    For Each r In Range("A3:A" & Lastrow)
        If r.Value <> "" Then ComboBox1.AddItem r.Value
    Next
End Sub

What am I doing wrong?

Code:
Dim r As Variant

On Error Resume Next
r = Application.WorksheetFunction.Match(cbName, Range("A3:A12"), 0)


MsgBox Range("e" & r)
Exit Sub

Remove the Worksheetfunction to leave
Code:
r = Application.Match(cbName, Range("A3:A12"), 0)
