Default populate listbox

I pick B1, B2 etc fom a combobox and populate a listbox with the correct
items from column B.
My problem is that the listbox will not update without these 3 lines at the
end.
I don't like the blinks and just putting ScreenUpdating at the end does not
work.

Application.ScreenUpdating = True
ListBox1.ListIndex = 12
ListBox1.ListIndex = 0

I'd appreciate any suggestions to improve the code below!!
