Hi All and thanks in advance for your help and wisdom

I am currently using the following code to change a label on a userform

Code:
Private Sub Combobox2_Change()
   
   Dim rw As Long
   
   rw = Me.ComboBox2.ListIndex + 1
   Me.Label23.Caption = Sheets("Data").Range("D" & rw).Value
   
End Sub

It works great up to a point. When someone selects something in the dropdown, but then changes their mind and hits the backspace, it brings up a runtime error. Is there a bit of code I could add that would stop the code searching for a null value?

Thanks

Neil
 

Excel Facts

What is the fastest way to copy a formula?
If A2:A50000 contain data. Enter a formula in B2. Select B2. Double-click the Fill Handle and Excel will shoot the formula down to B50000.
How about
Code:
Private Sub Combobox2_Change()
   
   Dim rw As Long
   if Me.ComboBox2="" Then Exit Sub
   rw = Me.ComboBox2.ListIndex + 1
   Me.Label23.Caption = Sheets("Data").Range("D" & rw).Value
   
End Sub
