I have 2 Combo box's sitting side by side, based off the list I need rows hidden and shown, so that the proper questions are shown. This is repeated down the sheet.

This is the code I was using when I was using Data Validation, however since I need the arrow on the right hand side to always show I switched to Combo box's.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance for any help.
Code:
 Option Explicit
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
    Dim Cell As Range, x As Long, y As Long
    With Application
        .ScreenUpdating = False
        .EnableEvents = False
    End With
    If Not Application.Intersect(Target, Range("B20,E20,B27,E27,B34,E34,B41,E41,B48,E48")) Is Nothing Then
        x = Target.Offset(1).Row: y = Target.Offset(6).Row
        For Each Cell In Range(Range("B" & x), Range("B" & y))
            Cell.EntireRow.Hidden = (Left(Range("B" & Cell.Row), 1) = " " And Left(Range("E" & Cell.Row), 1) = " ")
        Next
    End If
    With Application
        .EnableEvents = True
        .ScreenUpdating = True
    End With
    If Not Application.Intersect(Target, Range("B62,E62,B66,E66,B69,E69,B70,E70,B74,E74")) Is Nothing Then
        x = Target.Offset(1).Row: y = Target.Offset(3).Row
        For Each Cell In Range(Range("B" & x), Range("B" & y))
            Cell.EntireRow.Hidden = (Left(Range("B" & Cell.Row), 1) = " " And Left(Range("E" & Cell.Row), 1) = " ")
        Next
    End If
    With Application
        .EnableEvents = True
        .ScreenUpdating = True
    End With
End Sub

Ok here is the code for what I currently have but Combox.1 cancels out Combobox.2 I cannot figure out how to put these two together.
Code:
Private Sub ComboBox1_Change()
 If ComboBox1.Value = "Awning" Then
        ActiveSheet.Range("21:25").EntireRow.Hidden = False
    ElseIf ComboBox1.Value = "Parallelagrams" Then
        ActiveSheet.Range("21:22").EntireRow.Hidden = False
        ActiveSheet.Range("23:25").EntireRow.Hidden = True
    ElseIf ComboBox1.Value = "Marketing_Case" Then
        ActiveSheet.Range("21:22").EntireRow.Hidden = False
        ActiveSheet.Range("23:25").EntireRow.Hidden = True
    ElseIf ComboBox1.Value = "New_Item" Then
        ActiveSheet.Range("21:25").EntireRow.Hidden = True
    End If
End Sub


Private Sub ComboBox2_Change()
    If ComboBox2.Value = "Awning" Then
        ActiveSheet.Range("21:25").EntireRow.Hidden = False
    ElseIf ComboBox2.Value = "Parallelagrams" Then
        ActiveSheet.Range("21:22").EntireRow.Hidden = False
        ActiveSheet.Range("23:25").EntireRow.Hidden = True
    ElseIf ComboBox2.Value = "Marketing_Case" Then
        ActiveSheet.Range("21:22").EntireRow.Hidden = False
        ActiveSheet.Range("23:25").EntireRow.Hidden = True
    ElseIf ComboBox2.Value = "New_Item" Then
        ActiveSheet.Range("21:25").EntireRow.Hidden = True
    End If
End Sub

I have asked this question on another site as well as I really need answers.

Excel Facts

Why are there 1,048,576 rows in Excel?
The Excel team increased the size of the grid in 2007. There are 2^20 rows and 2^14 columns for a total of 17 billion cells.
Found the solution my using a series of true or false functions to decide weather the list box is true and then using the if function to create a number based of what the selection is. looks like this.
[TABLE="width: 384"]
<tbody>[TR]
[TD]Awning[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]FALSE[/TD]
[TD="align: right"]1[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]TRUE[/TD]
[TD="align: right"]1[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]Parallelagrams[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]FALSE[/TD]
[TD="align: right"]4[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]FALSE[/TD]
[TD="align: right"]4[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]Marketing_Case[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]FALSE[/TD]
[TD="align: right"]4[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]FALSE[/TD]
[TD="align: right"]4[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]Select[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]TRUE[/TD]
[TD="align: right"]4[/TD]
[TD="align: center"]FALSE[/TD]
[TD="align: right"]0[/TD]
[/TR]
</tbody>[/TABLE]


Then put this in sheet one.

Code:
 Private Sub ComboBox1_Change()    If Range("M20").Value = "4" Then
        Rows("21:25").EntireRow.Hidden = True
    ElseIf Range("M20").Value = "1" Then
        Rows("21:25").EntireRow.Hidden = False
ElseIf Range("M20").Value = "2" Then
    Rows("21:22").EntireRow.Hidden = False
    Rows("23:25").EntireRow.Hidden = True
ElseIf Range("M20").Value = "3" Then
    Rows("21:22").EntireRow.Hidden = False
    Rows("23:25").EntireRow.Hidden = True
   End If
End Sub
Private Sub ComboBox2_Change()
    If Range("M20").Value = "4" Then
        Rows("21:25").EntireRow.Hidden = True
    ElseIf Range("M20").Value = "1" Then
        Rows("21:25").EntireRow.Hidden = False
ElseIf Range("M20").Value = "2" Then
    Rows("21:22").EntireRow.Hidden = False
    Rows("23:25").EntireRow.Hidden = True
ElseIf Range("M20").Value = "3" Then
    Rows("21:22").EntireRow.Hidden = False
    Rows("23:25").EntireRow.Hidden = True
    End If
End Sub
