another combo problem


Posted by Mike on January 18, 2002 1:58 PM

I'm making a basketball stat sheet for a little league team and I have the individual game stats, each on a different work sheet. I have a combo box that lists all the teams we play, but I don't know how to make the selection in the combo box bring me to the specific sheet that holds the game stat.

Can you tell me what kind of combo box you have? Is it on a UserForm or on a sheet? If it's on a sheet, did you insert it from the Forms toolbar or the Control Toolbox?

What I would do is to use a combo box from the control toolbar. After you have assigned each sheet name to your combo box, double-click on the combo box (while still in design view). This should take you to the code window and insert the ComboBox1_Change() event. You can enter the following:

Private Sub ComboBox1_Change()
Sheets(ComboBox1.Text).Select
End Sub

Again, you need to make sure that the values in your combo box are spelled exactly like the sheets.

Hope this helps,
