I have a question regarding the below code. This works great except for one
problem, once I have this code, it ruins
another macro I have set up. The other macro is designed to copy a set of
rows and paste them in. Essentially adding a job to our Manpower tracking.
After the above code is placed in the worksheet, it disables the ability to
copy and past. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.


Private Sub EmpName_Change()

End Sub

Private Sub ComboBox1_Change()

End Sub

Private Sub Worksheet_BeforeDoubleClick(ByVal Target As Range, _
Cancel As Boolean)
Dim str As String
Dim cboTemp As OLEObject
Dim ws As Worksheet
Dim wsList As Worksheet
Set ws = ActiveSheet
Set wsList = Sheets("2007 Manpower")

Cancel = True
Set cboTemp = ws.OLEObjects("EmpName")
On Error Resume Next
With cboTemp
'clear and hide the combo box
.ListFillRange = ""
.LinkedCell = ""
.Visible = False
End With
On Error GoTo errHandler
If Target.Validation.Type = 3 Then
'if the cell contains a data validation list
Application.EnableEvents = False
'get the data validation formula
str = Target.Validation.Formula1
str = Right(str, Len(str) - 1)
With cboTemp
'show the combobox with the list
.Visible = True
.Left = Target.Left
.Top = Target.Top
.Width = Target.Width + 5
.Height = Target.Height + 5
.ListFillRange = str
.LinkedCell = Target.Address
End With
cboTemp.Activate
End If

errHandler:
Application.EnableEvents = True
Exit Sub

End Sub

With cboTemp

.ListFillRange = ""
.LinkedCell = ""

It is your selectionchange macro. When it runs, it clears the clipboard.

Microsoft had the same problem when they release their Y2K addin several
years ago.


you can try

Private Sub Worksheet_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim str As String
Dim cboTemp As OLEObject
Dim ws As Worksheet
' added line
if application.CutCopyMode <> False then exit sub
Set ws = ActiveSheet
Application.EnableEvents = False
Application.ScreenUpdating = True

Set cboTemp = ws.OLEObjects("EmpName")
On Error Resume Next
With cboTemp
.Top = 10
.Left = 10
.Width = 0
.ListFillRange = ""
.LinkedCell = ""
.Visible = False
.Value = ""
End With

errHandler:
Application.EnableEvents = True
Exit Sub

End Sub '====================================

I don't know if that will cure it, but its worth a shot.
 
Thank you, that worked! I may be on with more questions, I am really new at
this and have a project to complete here at work. Thanks for your help.

OK, as I suspected, I have another question. This works, I have linked to
using the data valadation feature, and input my information for an error
message when a value that is not in the list is entered. I do not get those
error messages, and am allowed to enter information that is not in the list.
I have tested it using just the list, the problem is that I would prefer to
have the autocomlete feature that you get with the combo box. Any help would
be appreciated.

Thanks again.
