Excel List Box Help
 
I need help to create a Macro to fill a list box with names from
another sheet and then when the list box changes to activate another
macro that will display some charts.

So far I only have the following code:


Range("B5").Select
ActiveWorkbook.Names.Add Name:="EmployeeNames", RefersToR1C1:= _
"=Employees!R1C1:R230C1"
ActiveWorkbook.Names.Add Name:="EmployeeNames", RefersToR1C1:= _
"=Employees!R1C1:R230C1"
With Selection.Validation
.Delete
.Add Type:=xlValidateList, AlertStyle:=xlValidAlertStop,
Operator:= _
xlBetween, Formula1:="=EmployeeNames"
.IgnoreBlank = True
.InCellDropdown = True
.InputTitle = ""
.ErrorTitle = ""
.InputMessage = ""
.ErrorMessage = ""
.ShowInput = True
.ShowError = True
End With


I got it from using th emacro recorder. Now I am stuck


Can someone please help me

OK, I found the answer. I didn't know the difference between a
listbox and a validation list; I got them confused. the above code is
for creating a validation list.

Below is my code to run another macro upon selection change.

Private Sub Workbook_SheetChange(ByVal Sh As Object, ByVal Target As
Range) ',

With Sh
If .Name = "Sheet5" Then

If Target.Address = "$B$3" Then
'MsgBox Target.Value
Run "test_listbox2"
End If
End If
End With
End Sub

This was a bit trycking being that Workbook_SheetChange by default
works on all sheets.

Thank You
