I am afraid I don't know much about VBA or programming. What I have tried to
do is to find pieces of VBA code in the net and then try to see if it works
for me. What I'd need the multiselect ActiveX listbox to do is that all the
values selected are saved in the active cell.

What I've managed to do so far with this piece of code is that I get a
listbox activated when I double clicks in a cell which contains a validation
list. When I click on the CommandButton1, only the first value which is
selected is transfered to the active cell. How could I get also the rest of
the values transfered to the same cell?

Hi,

Try this:

Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Dim i As Long
For i = 0 To Me.ListBox1.ListCount - 1
If Me.ListBox1.Selected(i) Then
' values delimited by blank .. change as required
ActiveCell.Value = AciveCell & Me.ListBox1.List(i) & " "
End If
Next i
End Sub
