I am creating a report with a listbox. The listbox contains doctors names
and when you click on a doctors names i want the label boxes and textboxes
on the page that give more inforamtion about the selected person to change.
Can anyone tell me how to do this or give me a good website about listboxes
and also comboboxes.
Thanks

Have a table with the doctors names in column 1, then the other details in
column 2, 3, etc.

Then when you click on the listbox, take the selected value, do a VLOOKUP
into the table to extract the other details, and load the labels and
textboxes with that data.

Could you give me an example of what that code would look like bob? I
am not very good with listboxs, nor lookup, first time using either in
an excel application

Okay, set-up a table in H1:K10 say like so

Dr Jones GP Merseyside Part-Time
Dr Peters GP Manchester Full-Time
Mr Walters Consultant Bootle Full-Time

Load the list box with the names (you can set the Rowsource property to
H1:H10). Then on the userform the listbox click event would lock something
like

Private Sub ListBox1_Click()
With Me.ListBox1
Label1.Caption = WorksheetFunction.VLookup(.Value, Range("H1:K10"),
2, False)
TextBox1.Text = WorksheetFunction.VLookup(.Value, Range("H1:K10"),
3, False)
End With
End Sub

This gets the 2nd column (e.g. GP) to the label, and the 3rd (area) to the
textbox.
