Looping through listbox controls
Bob,
Thank you for the help. My original post said I needed to store the Value
of the listbox. I thought you used the .Name for example purposes, so once I
saw that it worked I then tried the .Value instead. Your code was fine, I
was just trying to get the Value, did not mean to imply that your code did
not work. Were is the reference information that I can look at to see when
the .Object.Value is needed etc. I have that problem a lot with Excel, I
don't seem to be able to find how to expose all the objects, properties and
methods that available to me.
Thanks again,
Vince

Vince,
My code was
strValue = ActiveSheet.OLEObjects(i).Name
not
strValue = ActiveSheet.OLEObjects(i).Value
You must learn to paste it from the post, not type it all again <vbg

Thanks Bob, I tried the following:
Dim i as Long
For i = 1 To ActiveSheet.OLEObjects.Count
If TypeName(ActiveSheet.OLEObjects(i).Object) = "ListBox" Then
strValue = ActiveSheet.OLEObjects(i).Value
End If
Next i
First problem is the If statement never goes true.
Second problem is the line strValue when looked at in the quick watch
window
gives the error: <Object doesn't support this property or method
Any idea what is going on?

You are probabky looking at userform answers.
Try
Dim i As Long
For i = 1 To ActiveSheet.OLEObjects.Count
If TypeName(ActiveSheet.OLEObjects(i).Object) = "ListBox" Then
Msgbox ActiveSheet.OLEObjects(i).Name
End If
Next i

I have a worksheet with 51 listbox controls on it, Listbox1 -
Listbox51.
I
need to loop through them and get the Value in each one and store it
away.
I
have looked through the questions posted here, and the answer appears
easy
enough, however, I don't know if I have an Excel problem or something
else.
For some reason the Me.Controls line of code will not work. When I am
typing
the line of code, the drop down gives me several properties and
methods to
use for the "Me." but not "Controls".
Can anyone provide some help with this!!
Thank you
Vince
