List Box: Wrap text?
How does one wrap text in a listbox? There is not a "multiline" property...Is there another way to accomplish the same? -- Jason Sweeney -- jasonsweeney ------------------------------------------------------------------------ jasonsweeney's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...fo&userid=5222 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=508577 |

List Box: Wrap text?
If its not supported, the only way I can think of mimicing the same is to hide the listbox on the form, and then put 4 or 5 textboxes (each with multi line turned on, probably also with a vertical scroll bar) in a vertical row. Then update the textboxes using "textbox1.value = listbox.listindex 1"... Hell, for that matter, I could skip the listbox completely, and just use textboxes... But it would be far easier to just have the listbox wrap my text! -- Jason -- jasonsweeney ------------------------------------------------------------------------ jasonsweeney's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...fo&userid=5222 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread...hreadid=508577 |

List Box: Wrap text?
You could use a regular listbox and split your long lines up into two (or
more) lines. Handle clicks such that they select all linked lines when any one of the (split) lines is selected. A bit complex since you'd have to keep track when you loaded the list which lines are related, but should be possible.
