Hi This isn't exactly what you're looking for but it might help to some point.

In Sheet1 I have made a ComboBox over B1, I have linked it to G1 and filled it with a range from another group of cells in the workbook.

I then use the following code to filter from it

Private Sub ComboBox1_Change()
Dim i As Integer
 i = Sheets("Sheet1").Range("G1").Value
    Selection.AutoFilter Field:=2, Criteria1:=i
    
End Sub

You might need to alter it to suit your needs

You could try this:
1. In H1: =NOW()
This forces the sheet to recalculate when the Filter is changed and therefore triggers the code in step 3 below.
2. In I1: =COUNTA(B:B)-SUBTOTAL(3,B:B)
3. The following WorkSheet_Calculate code

<font face=Courier New><SPAN style="color:#00007F">Private</SPAN> <SPAN style="color:#00007F">Sub</SPAN> Worksheet_Calculate()
    <SPAN style="color:#00007F">Dim</SPAN> Row <SPAN style="color:#00007F">As</SPAN> <SPAN style="color:#00007F">Long</SPAN>
    Application.EnableEvents = <SPAN style="color:#00007F">False</SPAN>
    Application.ScreenUpdating = <SPAN style="color:#00007F">False</SPAN>
    <SPAN style="color:#00007F">If</SPAN> Range("I1").Value <> 0 <SPAN style="color:#00007F">Then</SPAN>
        Row = 2
        <SPAN style="color:#00007F">Do</SPAN> <SPAN style="color:#00007F">While</SPAN> Cells(Row, 2).EntireRow.Hidden = <SPAN style="color:#00007F">True</SPAN>
         Row = Row + 1
        <SPAN style="color:#00007F">Loop</SPAN>
        Range("G1").Value = Cells(Row, 2).Value
    <SPAN style="color:#00007F">Else</SPAN>
        Range("G1").Value = "N/A"
    <SPAN style="color:#00007F">End</SPAN> <SPAN style="color:#00007F">If</SPAN>
    Application.EnableEvents = <SPAN style="color:#00007F">True</SPAN>
    Application.ScreenUpdating = <SPAN style="color:#00007F">True</SPAN>
<SPAN style="color:#00007F">End</SPAN> <SPAN style="color:#00007F">Sub</SPAN></FONT>

The formulas in H1 and I1 could be moved elsewhere on the sheet and possibly hidden. If the I1 formula is moved to another cell, then the reference to it in the above code would also need to be changed.
