Combobox in a Message box

[Chris]

I am able to create a VB message and text box pop up when
I click on an image in my document. I would like to have
a combobox within that messagebox. Any ideas.

Msgboxes don't support controls

You would need to use a userform:

replace

msgbox "agaksdfj"
with
Userform1.show
