Hi there,

I am trying to create a User Form using ComboBoxes and am struggling with a couple of things:

1) I have populated my ComboBoxes successfully (these cascade down 5 levels) but, if I select an option in ComboBox1, for example, the relating options in ComboBox2 do not appear until I save, close and reopen the spreadsheet. I would like for this to update and show the next level of options automatically.

2) I would like for Level 2 to be disabled until Level 1 has been selected, and so on. I can disable and enable no problem, but no matter what code I have tried so far I cannot get them to disable/enable dependant upon the previous selection.

Any help would be appreciated - very new to this.

Thank you!
 

Excel Facts

Copy a format multiple times
Select a formatted range. Double-click the Format Painter (left side of Home tab). You can paste formatting multiple times. Esc to stop
And are you filling each successive combobox in the Change event of the selected control?

In other words, if you select a element in Combobox1, do you then fill Combobox2 based on the value of Combobox1 in Combobox1's change event?
