I’ve only been working with VBA for about two weeks now so if I call things by the wrong name, sorry. Anyway, I’ve been having trouble with a combobox. the box is filled with items and I can see them, scroll through them and click them. However, when I click the button I have that checks the value of the combobox, no matter what item I have selected in it, the value always comes out to null and is caught by

If IsNull(ToolReportBox.Value) = True Then
    MsgBox "Please Enter a tool"
    Exit Sub
End If

If I don’t have this check in there and try to assign the value to a sting such as

Dim toolName_str As String
    toolName_str = ToolReportBox.Value

later in the program it throws the error “Run-time error ’94’: Invalid use of Null”

anyone got suggestions other than make it a listbox?
Thanks in advance.

    You need to make sure that you have the Bound Column property in the Data tab set for a column that has data in it. For example, if you have it set for 1, it will look at the RowSource and grab the value from the first column listed there. Make sure that column has data in it.
