I am trying to use this line of code as an option to trap a non-numeric entry into a userform combobox. If in my example, I enter "d" into the combobox field, where only whole numbers are allowed, it leaves me with a type mismatch error.

Code:
If IsError(CInt(starthr.Value)) Then

My thinking is CInt(starthr.value) will result in an error since non numeric numbers (ie letters and other characters) and the IsError will pick up the error. I think I may not be using IsError properly

You may want to go a different route, for example:

If IsNumeric(starthr.Value)=True then...
