    Run 1 macro when any item from listbox is selected

    Hi everybody.
    I have 1 macro that i would like to be activated as soon as i select any item from a form control listbox (doesn't matter which item).
    Is this possible?
    Please note that i am not using an active X control but rather a form control.

    Thank you.

    Hi,
    if you right click on the control, you can assign a macro... no ?
