I have a worksheet (Data):

A B C
IMS Line
Accurate y
Banctec y y
Advisor y
Excel y

There are 12 rows. Column A is a list of services, IMS and LIne are
components used by those services. In this example Accurate uses IMS so
there is a y in cell B2.

I have a form with 2 listboxes, one (lbcomp) is autopopulated using
cells B1:C1. the other (lbsource) is autopopulated using cells A2:A12.
When a user selects a component from lbcomp I want all of the services
with a y against them to be highlighted, so if someone chooses IMS I
want Accurate, Banctec and Excel to be selected in lbsource.

So far I have written code which makes a msgbox report whethere the
service is used or not (i haven't quite figured out the selection part
yet). My code works for the first two rows but when it hits the third
time it fails and I get a Runtime error 13, type mismatch error. I am
new to VBA and tend to clone what I can from this group and others so
this has me stumped. The offending code follows:

Private Sub Lbcomp_Click()
Dim iloop As Integer
Dim res As String

For iloop = 0 To lbsource.ListCount - 1


res = Application.Index(Worksheets("Data").Range("b2:c12 "), _
Application.Match(lbcomp.Text, _
Worksheets("Data").Range("b1:c1"), 0), _
Application.Match(lbsource.List(iloop), _
Worksheets("Data").Range("a2:a12"), 0))

If res = "y" Then
MsgBox lbsource.List(iloop) & " uses this component."

Else:
If res = "" Then
MsgBox lbsource.List(iloop) & " doesn 't use this component."

Else

If IsEmpty(res) Then
MsgBox "res is empty!"
End If
End If

End If

Next iloop
End Sub


Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks very much
