combo box, deleting a row

  Asked By: Jasmine    Date: Aug 26    Category: MS Office    Views: 933
  

The following form is creating problem when I delete an entire row.
The combo box works fine when I open the form the first time, then
when I delete a row it should recalculate the range to populate the
combo box, but it does not. The procedure stops at this level
highlighted in red (CmyLastARow = LastCell(Worksheets
("EnterCowData")).Row ). I do not know what to do, do you have any
hint?

Thanks.

LastCell doesn't always update itself properly. You could try adding

Worksheets("EnterCowData").UsedRange

just before the LastCell line, to make Excel recalculate what the last cell
is. If that doesn't work, here is a handy function which will find the last cell
with data on a worksheet:

Function FindLastCell(Wksht As Worksheet) As String
'Returns address of last cell used (highest row  & col) on specified sheet
Dim LastRow As Long
Dim LastCol As Integer
On Error GoTo FLCerr1
With Wksht
LastRow = 0
LastCol = 0
LastRow& = _
.Cells.Find("*", after:=.Cells(1), _
LookIn:=xlFormulas, LookAt:=xlWhole, _
SearchDirection:=xlPrevious, _
SearchOrder:=xlByRows).Row
LastCol% = _
.Cells.Find("*", after:=.Cells(1), _
LookIn:=xlFormulas, LookAt:=xlWhole, _
SearchDirection:=xlPrevious, _
SearchOrder:=xlByColumns).Column
End With
FindLastCell$ = Cells(LastRow&, LastCol%).AddressLocal
Exit Function
FLCerr1:
FindLastCell$ = "ERROR"
End Function

You would call it like this:

CmyLastRow = FindLastCell(Sheets("EnterCowData"))

Please note, FindLastCell returns ERROR if the sheet is empty.
