Adding values to a Combobox 
 
Egad couldn’t find the right VBA syntax to change the properties of a ComboBox on a worksheet. (i.e. change the listfillrange).  He wanted this to occur via VBA after other macros have chugged.
 
He solved the post himself with the following VBA code: -
 
ActiveSheet.Shapes("ComboBox3").Select 
Selection.ListFillRange = "k1:k10" 

bnix then provided another couple of methods:-

With ComboBox1 
   .AddItem "This" 
   .AddItem "Is" 
   .AddItem "A" 
   .AddItem "Test" 
End With 

If you are using a range you would need to set up some type of loop, here is one that I would use in a Userform; 

Private Sub UserForm_Initialize() 

With cboRD 
For Row = 2 To 10 'Each cell in the range 
.AddItem Sheets("MenuSheet").Cells(Row, 11) 
Next Row 
End With 


With cboBM 
For Row = 1 To 75 
.AddItem Sheets("MenuSheet").Cells(Row, 8) 
Next Row 
End With 


With cboBr 
For Row = 1 To 75 
.AddItem Sheets("MenuSheet").Cells(Row, 7) 
Next Row 
End With 

End Sub
