How To Get Value From Combobox In Excel Vba

by

To get the value from a combobox in Excel VBA, you can follow these steps:

  1. Create a combobox on your worksheet using the Developer tab.
  2. Assign a unique name to the combobox using the properties window.
  3. In the VBA editor, write the code to retrieve the combobox value.

Here’s an example:

    
Sub GetValueFromComboBox()
   Dim comboBox As Object
   Set comboBox = Sheet1.Shapes("ComboBox1").OLEFormat.Object
   
   Dim selectedValue As String
   selectedValue = comboBox.Value
   
   MsgBox "Selected value: " & selectedValue
End Sub

In this example, the combobox is named “ComboBox1” on “Sheet1”. Change the names according to your setup.

The code first creates a reference to the combobox object using its name. Then, it retrieves the value of the combobox and stores it in the variable selectedValue.

Finally, a message box is displaying the selected value. You can modify the code to perform any required actions with the value.
