Hi,

I have a userform with a combobox which I built in Windows (Excel 365).
The combobox autocompletes nicely in Windows.
I have set MatchEntry = 1 - fmMatchEntryComplete.
However on the Mac the MatchEntryComplete isn't working correctly.
My combobox is linked to a range of cells in a worksheet which is a list of names.
For example,

1. Louis
2. Luciamo
etc

On the Mac when I type "L" into the combobox (disabled arrow so it looks like a standard textbox) it fills "Louis" in (as expected, being the first word on my list beginning with "L").
When I then type "U" to get to Daniel, the box fills as follows: "Luouis". I.e it correctly finds Daniel when "LU" is typed but doesn't remove the previous selection.

Is there some code I can use as a workaround?

Thanks

Links? Where??
If Excel says you have links but you can't find them, go to Formulas, Name Manager. Look for old links to dead workbooks & delete.
The combo box should work the same on Mac as on Windows. Use the Help menu in Excel and choose Feedback > I Don't Like Something to alert Microsoft to the behavior discrepancy.
