i have experience in programing, however, I am new to VBA. I have a user form that i am working on. This form has a Combo Box that has a list initialized to it. What i am trying
Your code doesn't compile.
If you have a userform with a single combobox called ComboBox1, you need to put your cell-finding code in the form code as follows:
Private Sub ComboBox1_Change()
MsgBox "yep, this is where the code should go"
End Sub
I suspect using the rowsource property of the combobox in combination with the index of the selected value you probably don't need to actually perform a search for the selected value. Something like this might work:
Private Sub ComboBox1_Change()
MsgBox Range(ComboBox1.RowSource).Cells(ComboBox1.ListIndex + 1)
End Sub
Hope that helps.
