See attached.  You needed to put list values in quotes and account for ListIndex<0 (when you change Material, the previous value for Section becomes invalid, so ListIndex goes to -1).

    See the attached worksheet. Look for the dynamically controlled listboxes.

    Thanks Richard

    I have seen this file and leanned alot of that , but unfortunately there is not any dynamicly ComboBox inside the file 

    I saw dynamiclt list box but script codes are diffrenet 

    anyhow MJG fixed main part of my problem with his reply I just know need to know how to makes automatic list updated after choosing material in the first combo box 

    in listbox control the code is ListBox.ResetCount but I do not know what is equivalent in ComboBox

    thanks again

    rreyhanian,

    The method for creating the list options in a ListBox was to add list values.  Therefore, it was necessary to clear the current list before adding the new list options.  The method that you are using to create the list options in the combobox automatically overwrites the existing list, so there is no need.

     

    Edit: I assumed you were referring to ListBox.ResetContent().  If you truly meant Listbox.resetCount, I'm not sure what you mean - please clarify.
