Copy text from a List box to a Cell!
 
I also forgot to mention that you will need to change the
name of the ListBox "List Box 2" to the name of your
ListBox.

Hi Kevin,

You can try the code below. You will need to do the
following:

1) Add the code below to workbook.
2) Right-click your list box and select "Assign Macro",
then select the Macro named "ReturnListBoxSelection".
3) I used the worksheet name "Notes", so if your
worksheet name is different you will need to change

it.

Sub ReturnListBoxSelection()
Dim lbcf As ControlFormat

Set lbcf = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Notes").Shapes
("List Box 2").ControlFormat

ActiveCell.Value = lbcf.List(lbcf.ListIndex)
End Sub

Hope this helps.

Regards,
James S

I made a List Box from the Form Menu and input a range

of cells
(Notes!$A$2:$A$21) that contain a list of names. What I

would like to do is,
to select a cell and the goto the List Box select a

Name
and then it would
just copy that name to the previously selected cell. Is

this possible? or
way to complicated to mess with.
At the moment all I do is select the name from the List

Box and the type the
name into the cell! Its just a list that helps me

remember all the names.

Thank you in advance for all your help!
