I've looked around and I'm having some trouble finding this (probably not wording it right).
I have a list of functions in A5:A50
A list of names spans D3:V3
D5:V50 involves boxes containing "C", "R", or "I" referencing that they have a responsibility in the function in column A

The userform populates from the functions in A, so when that changes, a textbox populates. What I need is the textbox to populate with a list of names (each on a single line) that have the C, R or I designator in the box matching both the name and the function.

Wow, I really hope that came across correctly.
Anyone that can help? Or lead me to a thread that I've missed?

Excel Facts

Why are there 1,048,576 rows in Excel?
The Excel team increased the size of the grid in 2007. There are 2^20 rows and 2^14 columns for a total of 17 billion cells.

You can put here exactly what instruction you use to populate the combo box. I need to look at how you fill the combobox.

This populates the description textbox.
VBA Code:
Set xRg = Worksheets("Functional Contacts").Range("A:D")
    
    TextBox1.Text = Application.WorksheetFunction.VLookup(ComboBox1.Value, xRg, 3, False)

In the same sub, I need it to determine if there is any text in the cells to the right of the function, for each cell that has data, I need a seperate line in the second textbox listing the employee name.

I didn't explain myself well. Somehow you are filling the combobox. I want you to put here how you fill the combobox.

Maybe you used AddItem or List or RowSource to fill the combobox, whatever you used to fill the combobox, you should put it here for me to see.

I use the RowSource. All functions are listed on a hidden sheet and the range is named "Function"

But exactly what the instruction is, put here the complete instruction you use.

I understand, but there really isn't any instruction. The coding that I sent earlier is the only VBA in the workbook. If I can figure out how, I paste a cut-down version, but really there isn't any programming going on yet. Only the Userform, combobox populated by the RowSource, then TextBox1 populated by the VBA I sent. TextBox2 is where I'm struggling.
I'm sorry if I'm not understanding what it is your asking for, but this really is all very basic at the moment.

I already understood what you need with the textbox. My doubt is not with the textbox, it is with the combobox, I need to know where the data is on the sheet, but taking the combobox reference.

If I had a combobox and filled it with the rowsource property and asked a question in MrExcel, I would comment: I fill in a combobox with the following statement:

VBA Code:
Private Sub UserForm_Activate()
  ComboBox1.RowSource = "A5:A12"
End Sub

Ok, let's forget that part.

Put the following on your userform:
VBA Code:
Private Sub ComboBox1_Change()
  Dim f As Range
  Dim sh As Worksheet
  Dim i As Long, j As Long, lc As Long
  
  TextBox2.MultiLine = True
  TextBox2.Value = ""

  Set sh = Sheets("Functional Contacts")
  Set f = sh.Range("A:A").Find(ComboBox1.Value, , xlValues, xlWhole, , , False)
  If Not f Is Nothing Then
    i = f.Row
    lc = sh.Cells(i, Columns.Count).End(1).Column
    For j = 4 To lc
      Select Case sh.Cells(i, j).Value
        Case "C", "R", "I"
          TextBox2.Value = TextBox2.Value & vbCr & sh.Cells(3, j)
      End Select
    Next
  End If
End Sub

I'm not understanding, but I think I have this figured out so that you can look at it...example contact list
