Hello,

I have a combobox that I'd like to populate with various people's names based on if they pass certain qualifications. So for example:

[TABLE="width: 500"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD]Names[/TD]
[TD]Run[/TD]
[TD]Pass[/TD]
[TD]Catch[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]Bob[/TD]
[TD]Y[/TD]
[TD]N[/TD]
[TD]N[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]Jill[/TD]
[TD]N[/TD]
[TD]Y[/TD]
[TD]Y[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]Tony[/TD]
[TD]Y[/TD]
[TD]Y[/TD]
[TD]Y[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]Mary[/TD]
[TD]N[/TD]
[TD]N[/TD]
[TD]Y[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]

If I would like to populate that combobox with people who can Run, what's the best way to sift through the data and snag all of the "Y"s

So the combobox would have Bob and Tony.
Assume the "Names" cell is A1.

The more concise the better!!

Thank you very much!
 

Excel Facts

Formula for Yesterday
Name Manager, New Name. Yesterday =TODAY()-1. OK. Then, use =YESTERDAY in any cell. Tomorrow could be =TODAY()+1.
Try this:
Code:
Private Sub ComboBox1_GotFocus()
Dim r As Range
ComboBox1.Clear
For Each r In Range("B2", Cells(Rows.Count, "B").End(xlUp))
    If r = "Y" Then ComboBox1.AddItem r.Offset(, -1)
Next
End Sub
