Hi please can you help me,
I have the code below where combobox2 is working fine, butwith combobox1 I want the range to be B1, C1, D1, E1, F1, G1, H1, J1, K1, L1,M1, N1, O1, P1, Q1, R1, please can you help?


Code:
With ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Data")
    ComboBox1.RowSource = ""
    ComboBox1.List = .Range("B1:R" & .Range("B" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row).Value
    ComboBox2.RowSource = ""
    ComboBox2.List = .Range("A2:R" & .Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row).Value

End With
 
I think it's typo in "WithThisWorkbook.Sheets ("Data")" . Try this one:
Code:
With ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Data")
ComboBox1.RowSource = ""
ComboBox1.List = Application.Transpose(.Range("B1:R1").Value)
ComboBox2.RowSource = ""
ComboBox2.List = .Range("A2:R" & .Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row).Value

Hm, try this:

Code:
With ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Data")
ComboBox1.RowSource = ""
ComboBox1.List = Application.Transpose(.Range("B1:R1").Value)
ComboBox2.RowSource = ""
ComboBox2.List = .Range("A2:R" & .Range("A" & .Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row).Value
End With

Hi that works great thank you for your help on this :)
Please can you advise what the application transpose does please?

Hm, I'm not good at explaining things, you can can just google it.
Basically, in this case, Application.Transpose is used to transform data in column to row.
Range B1:R1 is multi column whilst you need the value in a single column (multi row) combobox. So you need to transform it to row .
