Forms Combo Box Format Control (Auto Update Range)

(OP)
I am using a combo box from the “FORMS” toolbar.  In the format control where you select the input range is there a way to automatically update the range?  

I would like to write a series of “IF” statements that will determine the number of rows selected in the box.  This selection will be determined base on several other inputs.  As an example I may want to select A1:A10 for my first run, but as the input data changes I may need to select A1:A20.  

I need the info to automatically update.  Is there a way to do this without a macro?

Thanks!

try what is called a "dynamic range".

the following website provides examples, among other useful information.
