i need to create a dialog box that uses a multi-select listbox to pul
data from another sheet (or workbook). for instance, i'd like
listbox that displays a list:

abc
def
ghi
jkl
mno

and so on, allowing the user to select from the box the elements o
immediate interest. i'd like the listbox to know which elements wer
selected and pull only those pieces of data that are associated wit
those elements.

how can i do this?

thanks

for i = 0 to Listbox1.Listcount - 1
if listbox1.Selected(i) then
' work with the listbox1.list(i)
end if
Next

Multiselect is a property of the listbox which you can set in the properties
window.

thanks.

i ended up writing this:

Private Sub Compute_Click()
Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("A1").Select
For i = 0 To ListBox1.ListCount - 1
If ListBox1.Selected(i) Then ActiveCell.Value = ListBox1.List(i)
If ActiveCell.Value = "" Then ActiveCell.Select
If ActiveCell.Value < "" Then ActiveCell.Offset(1, 0).Select
Next i
Range("A1").Select
Range(Selection, Selection.End(xlDown)).Copy
Worksheets("sheet2").Range("A1")
Unload Me
End Sub

works perfectly. :)
