Hi,

You must have a separate list if you are comparing values to your list.

Use the listindex property to ascertain a match and the listbox click event
to determine the list item clicked.

eg:
dim intNum as integer
intNum=listbox.listindex
if listbox.list(intNum)<range("A1").value then
msgbox"That item does not exist!",vbexclamation,"Listbox Manager"
end if

Hi
Is it possible to change the appearance/color of certain items inside a
listbox? To indicate if some items are active.

Example

Listbox:
Item1
Item2
Item3
item4 --- This are all the possible values

When compared this values with a query, let's say that item3 is
missing, So item3 is showed in the listbox, but can't be selected.
