Your hunch was 100% accurate. The buttons work like a charm. Thank you
very much for responding.

That fix will make me look good in a meeting today.

Hi Larry,

I have a hunch there's some other code in your Userform's Initialise event
that makes a difference.

Try replacing
frmSelectComponent.Hide
with
Unload frmSelectComponent

What is the mistake to which you refer?

Which button would be "defeated"? I wouldn't mind a workaround that
"cleared" the clicked button and made it ready for being clicked again
in
sequence.

Larry,

You could, but that would defeat the object of the button and you
would be
in the same position that you are in now, mistakes require starting
again.

Thanks for responding. That would work, but it would add a step for
the
user (for each "real" button clicked).

Is it possible to hide your suggested button and write code to
"click"
that
button every time a "real" button is clicked?

Not really sure about what your problem is, but how about having a
command
button on the userform that the user clicks when they are happy
they
have
made the correct selection from the listbox.

Hello --

I have 3 command buttons (btnA, btnB, btnC) on a worksheet, each
performing
the same task on 3 different columns:
- Click button
- show UserForm (contains only a listbox)
- click listbox item
- selected item is assigned to a cell below the button; form
closes

Each button works fine if btnB is clicked, for example, after
btnA.

Problem: btnA will not show the UserForm if clicked immediately
after
clicking btnA the first time.
The user might have made a mistake and wants to select a
different
item
from
the listbox; I don't want him/her to have to click another
button
just
to
make the desired one "active" again.

Code for listbox Click event is:

Private Sub lstSelectComponent_Click()
'clicking a model in listbox selects the model ID
Dim strCellEqpSelName As String 'range name of cell
holding
selected
eqp name
strCellEqpSelName = "sel_" & g_strCellEqpSel
Cells.Range(strCellEqpSelName).Value =
Me.lstSelectComponent.Value
frmSelectComponent.Hide
Exit Sub
End Sub

Can someone tell me what is wrong with my approach? Is there
some
code
needed to "re-activate" the clicked button?

Thanks for any help.
