Sure. Use the ListView control from the Windows Common Controls
collection, which should be installed on most PCs.

Just to make sure, I'm not talking about the normal MSForms list box, but
the Windows Common Controls ListView control. In that control, you can
set the color of each row and change the caption of the list header to
indicate a sort order.

Thank you again for the information. But i have a question?
I tried in listview for changing the font color for each row.

for example:
1st row is blue color - works fine
2nd row in green color - 1st row and 2nd row are in green color.

So. only one color can be done in listview. I need to maintain atleas
2 colors in listview at a time.

For sorting can you give me some example of which column in sorted an
in what order.


Thanks
Venkatesh

ListView1.ListItems(0).ForeColor = vbBlue
ListView1.ListItems(1).ForeColor = vbGreen

in what order.

It's not automatic. You'd have to handle the click event for the column
header, sort the list and change the caption of the column header to
match.

That would be why <g. I'm using the Microsoft List View Control 6.0,
found in the file MSCOMCTL.OCX, which has more functionality than the one
you're using from comctl32.ocx
