Solved: .AddItme help
Can someone give me an idea why this error's out?
For iLCV = 1 To 10
ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Form").cmbSite.AddItem = Range("B" & iLCV).Text
Next iLCV
I am getting runtime error 438 here.
On a worksheet named Form, i have a combo box named cmbSite. I am trying to loop through (in this case) 10 rows of data to populate that combo box.
the cell where the box is shows =EMBED("Forms.ComboBox.1","")
thanks for the help

remove the = sign?
You could do this with one line (I haven't qualified 'Range("B1:B10").Value' so this assumes you've made sure the active sheet is the right sheet - this is no different from your own code in this respect)
[vba]ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Form").cmbsite.List = Range("B1:B10").Value[/vba] and if you wanted the combobox list to update itself automatically when the values in the range change use:
[vba]ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Form").cmbsite.ListFillRange = "B1:B10"[/vba] (this last assumes that the range B1:B10 is on the Forms sheet)

You could also consider a Dynamic Range Name and the ListFillRange property to fiil the combo.
