Stop Restricted Customers from being Booked.

[Sir Boffalot]

Hello!

OK. This is a bit difficult to explain, but here goes anyway...
On my excel workbook based on an aeroplane when you try to book a customer to a seat by clicking a command button, a VBA userform opens asking you to choose a customer to book the seat to, all the customers are in a combo box linked to an excel worksheet called "Customers"... Anyway in "Customers" across from the customer's name is a column called "Restricted?" if this equals Y then I want a msgbox to pop up saying the reason which is in another column on the same row and then the customer to be refused access to the seat.

Can anyone help?

Sorry about the confusing explanation.

Thank You.

Hi there,

Sounds like you want a worksheet change event. What cell value will change (most precedent cell) to give you your 'flag logic'? I'll assume for a moment that it is column A (Restricted), and the reason is in column C and will be in the same row.
