Hello people,

I have one combobox on my sheet and I am trying to put a listbox on the same
sheet.
so when i click on Add To List button it should add the selected value from
combobox to the listbox.
but i m not able to insert a listbox.
can anyone please help me with this.


This is the code i m using to insert a listbox on my sheet.
and i m getting Type Mismatch error

Sub TEST()
Dim oOLE As OLEObject
Dim lstCustomers As ListBox

Set oOLE = ActiveSheet.OLEObjects.Add(ClassType:="Forms.ListB ox.1",
Left:=537, Top:=89, Width:=120, Height:=15)

Set lstCustomers = oOLE.Object
End Sub

hope to hear something on this.

Why are you trying to add it in code, why not just add it in design?

hello bob,
thanks for your reply and question

actually i tried to add the listbox control in design mode, just straight
from the Forms toolbox to my sheet
but if i add it like that then i m not getting all those controls in the
coding.
i mean for example if i draw a listbox on my sheet, and name it as ListBox1,
then i am not getting that control in code.

thats why i m trying to add it using code.
if you know how can i use drawn controls in coding please please let me
know. thats what i wanted basically.

thanks again.
cheers mate

You were using the listbox from the Forms toolbar.

I don't know why that happens.

Maybe you could use Bob's idea and place the listbox where you want it. Just
hide it or unhide it in your code.
