Default How do I get a list from an excel sheet into a userform/listbox?

Hello all,

I am very new to the VBA programming language. I have managed to solve
most of my problems by looking for answers here, on the Internet and
in a nice little book called "Excel 2003 VBA".

Background:
I am planning to have a excel sheet that can display information based
on a list located in another sheet (a database of sorts). So, the
"database sheet" contains names,numbers and values and I plan to have
a "display sheet" that will display values and calculations for one
member of the database/list at a time.

VBA involvment:
I want to be able to press a button to open up a simple userform with
a listbox.
In the listbox I want to list the members of the database.
When I click on any of the members I want the userform to close and
that the values for that perticular member to be displayed in my
"display sheet".

Problem:
Well, the excel part is easy enough but I really don't know where to
start with the VBA.
I have created a userfrom and I have added a listbox.

Now how do I get the listbox to display the "members" from the
database sheet?

All the rest I'll worry about later.. :)


I haven't found any article yet to help me so maybe anyone here knows
where I should start to look for info?
Or can you give a hint so I know where to start?
