Thanks everyone for the input. I found the reason. The interactive change was running before the values got set in the RowSource. The Refresh() then set the combo boxes back to the value of the RowSource. All I had to do was set the RowSource = ComboBox.Value at the top of the lookup rtn and all is well.
