Excel Combobox with additional selection criteria

I have a combobox that reflects a list (in a different tab) withou
duplications.

At the moment it is selecting names in columnC. Additionally, I want t
show only those names that meet a criteria in columnA. The selectio
criteria is entered in cell M1 of the base sheet.

Here's my code I use so far.

Private Sub worksheet_Activate()
Dim AllCells As Range, Cell As Range
Dim NoDupes As New Collection
Dim i As Integer, j As Integer
Dim Swap1, Swap2, Item
Dim rng As Range

Me.combobox1.Clear

Set AllCells = Worksheets("NKADaten").Range("C4:C200")
On Error Resume Next
For Each Cell In AllCells
NoDupes.Add Cell.Value, CStr(Cell.Value)
Next Cell
On Error GoTo 0
For i = 1 To NoDupes.Count - 1
For j = i + 1 To NoDupes.Count
If NoDupes(i) > NoDupes(j) Then
Swap1 = NoDupes(i)
Swap2 = NoDupes(j)
NoDupes.Add Swap1, before:=j
NoDupes.Add Swap2, before:=i
NoDupes.Remove i + 1
NoDupes.Remove j + 1
End If
Next j
Next i
For Each Item In NoDupes
Me.combobox1.AddItem Item
Next Item
End Sub

Many thanks for your help.

Dave,

You made my day. It works.
Amazing how small things can make you happy.

Many thanks,

Dave, how would it look like if I had another additional criteria to be
checked (say in M2) with column B?

Just repeating the first if function and replacing M1 with M2 and
changing column to -1 doesn't do the trick.

Maybe...

On Error Resume Next
For Each Cell In AllCells
if lcase(cell.offset(0,-2).value) _
= lcase(worksheets("base").range("M1").value) then
if lcase(cell.offset(0,-1).value) _
= lcase(worksheets("base").range("M2").value) then
NoDupes.Add Cell.Value, CStr(Cell.Value)
end if
end if
Next Cell
