I'm using 2010 and need to import my excel sheet1 into access. I have a combo box (Active X with a source on sheet2). When the combo box is populated in excel its fine but when i import into access i get blanks.. Do i need to reference the source list and if so, whats the best way to do this?
 
I'm guessing you need to link ("cell link" field in format control) your combobox to a cell in sheet1. If you have one of these per row then cell validation using a list (named range on sheet 2) might work better (I tried this and it imports fine)
