When a command button opens a user form, the combo box in the user form has a blinking cursor right away. I would like the combo box to not be selected when it is first opened. Any ideas for lines of code?
 

Excel Facts

Which came first: VisiCalc or Lotus 1-2-3?
Dan Bricklin and Bob Frankston debuted VisiCalc in 1979 as a Visible Calculator. Lotus 1-2-3 debuted in the early 1980's, from Mitch Kapor.

Code:
Private Sub UserForm_Activate()
    ComboBox1.Enabled = False
End Sub


However, based on your duplicate posting of this question, and the way it is worded in the second post, I think yyou do not really want this solution and should instead explore Tab Stop and Tab Index properties from the object properties window in the Form Designer
