For Each c In v
If IsEmpty(c) Then Exit For
Next c
'Send to the error message if all the cell in range v has been used
If IsEmpty(c) Then GoTo line1 Else GoTo line3
line1:
'The selection from 3 comboboxes is set in the first empty cell
c.Value = ComboBox1.Text & "." & ComboBox2.Text & ComboBox3.Text

'Here is my problem. I want to check that the user don't selected the
same text
'several times, because the the text result in range "v" is going to be
sheet names.
