Comboboxes

[Angeliki]

I want to create two comboboxes but i want the second one to show me only
relevant info from the first one.

For example

i have Australia,Usa for the first combobox
and the second one i want to show me only the cities of each country. So if
i choose australia i wish the second combobox to drop down only Sydney,
Perth

I wrote a code for this but something doesnot work in the second part..
Could anyone let me know what is wrong?

Thanks in advance

Angeliki

Angeliki,

I have a workbook for doing this. All you need to do is plug in the values.
Mail me directly (not the signature anti-spam defence) if you want a copy.
