How to show a ListBox with a spreadsheet

  Asked By: Ted    Date: Dec 01    Category: MS Office    Views: 821
  

Anybody can help me ?

I need to show the columns with the names (COD, NAME, PHONE) and show the datas,
but in the form, then only show one date (NAME).

In the spreadsheet (clientes) I´ve three columns
A B C
Code Name Phone

Following the code below.

Private Sub UserForm_Activate()
Dim SourceWB As Workbook
Dim ListItems As Variant
Dim i As Integer
Application.ScreenUpdating = False

With Me.ComboBox1
.Clear ' remove existing entries from the combobox
' open the source workbook as ReadOnly

Set SourceWB = Workbooks.Open("C:\TEMP\Clientes.xls", _
False, True)
'no need to use all rows if empty
ListItems.AddItem = SourceWB.Worksheets(1).Range("b2:B50").Value

' get the values you want
SourceWB.Close False ' close the source workbook without saving
changes
Set SourceWB = Nothing
ListItems = Application.WorksheetFunction.Transpose(ListItems)
' convert values to a vertical array
For i = 1 To UBound(ListItems)
.AddItem ListItems(i) ' populate the listbox

Next i
.ListIndex = -1 ' no items selected, set to 0 to select the first item

End With
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

You don't say what's actually happening when you run this code. When I put it
in a small test workbook  I get an "object required" error on the

ListItems.AddItem = SourceWB.Worksheets(1).Range("b2:B50").Value

statement. This is because ListItems is not a control and therefore doesn't
have an AddItem method.

In your description, you have columns  A, B and C, but you only ever use column
B.

I think you need to give us a more detailed explanation of what you are trying
to do.

I'm also not sure what you expect the Transpose function call to do when used
with VBA variables.
