Problem with disabling ComboBox

[Whistler]

Hi, I have a combo box with name "DropShift" and Checkbox with name "CheckBoxTrend". When the Check box is selected a chart type changing, everything works correectly. But I would like to add that when Check box is selected ComboBox is disabled. But I'm getting Run time error "object required"

Sub CheckBoxTrend_Change()
Dim ws As Worksheet
Set ws = Worksheets("Data")
Dim ws2 As Worksheet
Set ws2 = Worksheets("Dashboard")


If ws2.CheckBoxes("CheckBoxTrend").Value = xlOff Then
ShiftDrop.Enabled = False
ws2.ChartObjects("Chart 17").Activate
ActiveChart.ChartType = xlColumnStacked
With ws.PivotTables("PivotTrend").PivotFields("Shift")
        .Orientation = xlColumnField
        .Position = 1
    End With
End If

If ws2.CheckBoxes("CheckBoxTrend").Value = xlOn Then
ShiftDrop.Enabled = True
ws2.ChartObjects("Chart 17").Activate
ActiveChart.ChartType = xlColumnClustered
With ws.PivotTables("PivotTrend").PivotFields("Shift")
        .Orientation = xlPageField
        .Position = 1
    End With
ActiveChart.SeriesCollection(1).Trendlines.Add
    With ActiveChart.SeriesCollection(1).Trendlines(1)
    .Border.ColorIndex = 3
    .Border.Weight = xlMedium
    .Border.LineStyle = xlContinuous
    End With

End If
End Sub

Any help much appreciated!

Hi

In your question you mentioned that the combobox is called "DropShift" but in your code you refer to "ShiftDrop". Is it possible that you have just used the incorrect combobox name? (I am assuming that you do not have Option Explicit in your module as this would have been picked up during compilation).

Thanks for the replay,

I made mistake when I was writing last post should be ShiftDrop, both name are the same in the code and in excel. Any through?

And I completely don't know what is Option Explicit and how this can help me with finding faults like this.

Hi

Is the ShiftDrop combo on the same sheet as CheckboxTrend?

Yes, they are both on the same sheet and the same chart.

I've forgot to mention that both ComboBox and CheckBox are Form Controls not ActiveX, and they are located on the pivotChart.

Any Idea?

I have managed to sort it

Full solution if anyone interested

Sub CheckBoxTrend_Click()

Dim ws As Worksheet
Set ws = Worksheets("Data")
Dim ws2 As Worksheet
Set ws2 = Worksheets("Dashboard")


If ws2.CheckBoxes("CheckBoxTrend").Value = xlOff Then
ws2.DropDowns("ShiftDrop").Enabled = False

ws2.ChartObjects("Chart 17").Activate
ActiveChart.ChartType = xlColumnStacked
With ws.PivotTables("PivotTrend").PivotFields("Shift")
        .Orientation = xlColumnField
        .Position = 1
    End With
End If

If ws2.CheckBoxes("CheckBoxTrend").Value = xlOn Then
ws2.DropDowns("ShiftDrop").Enabled = True
ws2.ChartObjects("Chart 17").Activate
ActiveChart.ChartType = xlColumnClustered
With ws.PivotTables("PivotTrend").PivotFields("Shift")
        .Orientation = xlPageField
        .Position = 1
    End With
ActiveChart.SeriesCollection(1).Trendlines.Add
    With ActiveChart.SeriesCollection(1).Trendlines(1)
    .Border.ColorIndex = 3
    .Border.Weight = xlMedium
    .Border.LineStyle = xlContinuous
    End With

End If
End Sub
