I have a simple userform with a combox and two option buttons. I would
like to populate the combobox with a range if optionbutton1 is clicked
and with another range if ob2 is clicked. I keep getting a "Run time
error 13, type mismatch" message. My code is below.

Private Sub OptionButton1_Click()
UserForm1.ComboBox1.RowSource = Range("a1:a10")
End Sub

Can anyone tell me what is wrong with this? Looks legit to me.

Thanks for any help,
Greg
 
Hi Greg,

These properties are set as strings that look idnetical to the way you would
enter them in the properties dialog box.

Private Sub OptionButton1_Click()
UserForm1.ComboBox1.RowSource = "Sheet1!A1:A10"
End Sub

Private Sub OptionButton2_Click()
UserForm1.ComboBox1.RowSource = "Sheet1!B1:B10"
End Sub

     UserForm1.ComboBox1.RowSource = "Sheet1!A1:A10"
End Sub

Private Sub OptionButton2_Click()
     UserForm1.ComboBox1.RowSource = "Sheet1!B1:B10"
End Sub

Thanks Ossie, but can you tell me why the code wouldn't be written
like this:

Private Sub OptionButton2_Click()
UserForm1.ComboBox1.RowSource = Sheets("sheet1").range("B1:B10")
End Sub

Thanks,
Greg
 
Hi Greg,

I can't really explain more than my previous comment "These properties are
set as strings that look identical to the way you would enter them in the
properties dialog box."
Bacically the code emulates what you would do manually.
