I should have added that you really should be using the KeyUp not the
KeyDown event. The KeyDown event will run over and over again as long as the
key is down, stopping only when the key is released. This will cause the
code to add the items in ListBox1 to ListBox2 many times. Using KeyUp
prevents this.

Change the KeyCode from 97 to 65 or, better, vbKeyA

If KeyCode = vbKeyA And Shift = 2 Then

Hi,
I try to let VBA copy a listbox items when holding down the ctrl- and
pressing the a-key (select all).

Any suggestion on why this doesn't work?
Do I need to combine a KeyPressed event?

Thanks in advance

Regards

Frank
