ComboBox with dynamic range

[sapka]

Hi,<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-comfficeffice" /><o></o>
here is a workbook where combobox with dynamic range is created. Problem is that it is not working as expected. Change B1 to 5 or 15 and you will see that (in the first case you will see 5 listed items and 5 blank spaces, in the second case you will see 10 choices instead of 15). Why combobox is not working as expected?<o></o>
I need a solution without VBA.<o></o>

Use Form controls or Data Validation, but not ActiveX controls in your case. Look at this:

Note: With ActiveX controls I have the same problems that you have.
