Whilst I have no idea what you are on about, surely all dalmations are
dalmatians!

And, not all dalmatians are dogs, some Dalmatians are inhabitants of a
southern coastal region of Croatia.

I agree.
I have read similar examples many times in the past.
They all led me elsewhere.
Today when I read this again, I know where I have misunderstood it.

A listbox is a listbox, a control is a more generic term for the
controls
on a form. So a listbox is a listbox, a textbox is a textbox, but both
are
also controls.

You can test the controls collection for the control type


For Each ctl In Me.Controls
Select Case TypeName(ctl)
Case "CommandButton": MsgBox ctl.Caption
Select Case TypeName(ctl)
Case "TextBox": MsgBox ctl.Value
Select Case TypeName(ctl)
Case "Label": MsgBox ctl.Caption
'etc.
Next

I have this multipage userform, containing 16 listboxes in 16 pages.
page0 has no listbox.
Whenever an item is selected in one of these listboxes, some 30 lines
of
code is needed to process that item.
The original code thus contained 16 x 30 lines of code.

It took me 2 years on and off to construct a loop to do the same
stuff,
in about 40 lines of code.
It turns out that each list box is not a list box, it is a control.
Its position has nothing to do with page number, which in turn is
multipage.value

Amazing
