Thumbs up Answer: Add Listbox header using VBA

To add a header to a listbox in a userform using VBA, you can use the ColumnHeads property of the listbox. Here's how you can do it:
  1. Open the VBA editor by pressing Alt + F11.
  2. Double-click on the userform in the Project Explorer window to open the code window for the userform.
  3. In the code window, add the following code in the UserForm_Initialize event:

    Formula:
    Private Sub UserForm_Initialize()
        
    With ListBox1
            
    .ColumnCount 'set the number of columns in the listbox
            .ColumnWidths = "50;50;50;50;50;50" '
    set the width of each column
            
    .ColumnHeads True 'set the ColumnHeads property to True
            .List = Range("A1:BH100").Value '
    populate the listbox with data from the specified range
            
    .ListIndex = -'deselect any selected item in the listbox
        End With
    End Sub 
  4. In the above code, change "ListBox1" to the name of your listbox control.
  5. Change the number of columns and the width of each column to match your requirements.
  6. Change the range "A1:BH100" to the range that contains the data you want to display in the listbox.
  7. Save the userform and close the VBA editor.

When you run the userform, you should see a header row at the top of the listbox with the column names "Column 1", "Column 2", etc. You can change these column names by setting the List property of the first row of the listbox to an array of strings with the same number of elements as the number of columns in the listbox. For example:

Formula:
.ListBox1.List(0) = Array("Name""Age""Gender""Address""Phone""Email"
This code should be added before the .List = Range("A1:BH100").Value line in the UserForm_Initialize event.
