You want a listbox with a single option????

If you make the ranges refer to more than one cell, then it should work ok.

But the listbox's list is looking for an array. And the .value of a single cell
won't qualify.

But if you really wanted (or weren't sure what that name pointed to):

Dim myArr As Variant
Dim iCtr As Long

For iCtr = 1 To 4

With Worksheets("sheet1").Range("List" & iCtr)
If .Cells.Count = 1 Then
myArr = Array(.Value)
Else
myArr = .Value
End If
End With

Worksheets("sheet1").OLEObjects("Listbox" & iCtr).Object.List = myArr

Next iCtr

Just a warning <bg, if list# consists of multiple areas, then this will break,
too!

Which listboxes did you use?
The Controls Listbox

What are the names of the listboxes?
Listbox1<<,from Properties Dialog box "(Name)"
Listbox2
Listbox3
Listbox4

What are the names of the ranges?
List1 -- Refers to: =Sheet1!$K$2
List2 -- Refers to: =Sheet1!$K$3
List3 -- Refers to: =Sheet1!$K$4
List4 -- Refers to: =Sheet1!$K$5

Thanks for helping...

Dave:
I used you code (modified to reflect my rangename assignment is to Sheet1),
But I'm currently getting:

R/T 381 - cannot set the list property - Invalid Property array index.

Any insight for me?

Thaks,

Are these listboxes from the Control toolbox toolbar?

Did you name them nicely (Listbox1, listbox2, listbox3, listbox4)?

If yes to both...

I put the named ranges on Sheet2 and the listboxes on sheet1:

Dim iCtr As Long
For iCtr = 1 To 4
Worksheets("sheet1").OLEObjects("Listbox" & iCtr).Object.List _
= Worksheets("sheet2").Range("List" & iCtr).Value
Next iCtr


If these are listboxes from the Forms toolbar, the code changes:

Dim iCtr As Long
For iCtr = 1 To 4
Worksheets("sheet1").ListBoxes("List box " & iCtr).List _
= Worksheets("sheet2").Range("List" & iCtr).Value
Next iCtr

This expects that these listboxes are named nicely, too:
List Box 1, List Box 2, List Box 3, List Box 4
