MS Office Forum / Excel / New Users / October 2006InputBox Drop Down List?
I'm wondering if you can have a drop down list in an InputBox, or if there is something similar to an InputBox for this function. I am running a macro in Excel where I want the user to be able to choose a city from a drop down list, and then have whatever city they choose choose put an associated zip code into the spreadsheet. Is this possible? Not using an inputbox, but you could design a userform with a combobox that offers the cities you want to support. You could use =vlookup() in your code or just plop the results of the combobox into a worksheet cell and use =vlookup() in an adjacent cell. This is from Debra Dalgleish's site: http://contextures.com/xlUserForm01.html Tom Ogilvy posted these links: Peter Aiken Articles: Part I http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/dnoffpro01/html/IntroductiontoUserFormsP artI.asp Part II http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/dnoffsol02/html/IntroductiontoUserFormsP artII.asp If you're new to macros, you may want to read David McRitchie's intro at: http://www.mvps.org/dmcritchie/excel/getstarted.htm > I'm wondering if you can have a drop down list in an InputBox, or if > there is something similar to an InputBox for this function.

That's what I'm having trouble defining at this point. > Not using an inputbox, but you could design a userform with a combobox that > offers the cities you want to support.
