Question

Create a list box with option buttons or check box

Asked by: talkingtang

Hi,
I am going to create a  list box with option buttons or check box using VBE in my program, but I don't have any idea about it. Can any experts help me? In the list box, I will give a number of option that the user have to choose and check the box(only one box can be checked). After that the user will click OK and the function that he had choose will perform the task. So, in the program, it will call the function that have been chosen by the user. So, how to write the code that will pass the parameter? hope somebody can help me..


regards,
talkingtang

Hi talkingtang,

1-Goto VBA (Alt+F11) and point to Insert->Userform to create a new userform.
2- From the Control Toolbox (View->Toolbox in Form view) select Listbox control and draw a listbox on the form (default name is ListBox1)
3- From the Control Toolbox select CommandButton and draw a command button on the form (default name is CommandButton1). Goto properties window when listbox selected (hit F4) and set ListStyle Property as frmListStyleOption.
4- Point to View->Code (or hit F7) to see Form module and copy and paste the following code into the module which is appeared on right pane.

'----Code Start----
Private Sub UserForm_Activate()
'This code works when form is activated and fill the options in the list box
    Me.ListBox1.AddItem "First choice"
    Me.ListBox1.AddItem "Second choice"
    Me.ListBox1.AddItem "Third choice"
End Sub

Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
'This code works when CommandButton1 is clicked and call the related macros according to selected item index in listbox
    Select Case Me.ListBox1.ListIndex
    Case 0
        Call Choice1Event
    Case 1
        Call Choice2Event
    Case 2
        Call Choice3Event
    End Select
End Sub

Sub Choice1Event()
'Code works if first item is selected
    MsgBox "Choice 1 event goes here"
End Sub
Sub Choice2Event()
'Code works if second item is selected
    MsgBox "Choice 2 event goes here"
End Sub
Sub Choice3Event()
'Code works if third item is selected
    MsgBox "Choice 3 event goes here"
End Sub

'----Code End----

5- Run the form by pressing F5

You can activate the form by using following code from your module in your real project.

Userform1.Show

I hope this helps.
