    Live update of .ListBox.Selected

    Hi,

    I have a userform that dynamically hides and unhides columns based on the selections in a listbox. .Selected(0) is "Show All" and the following list items refer to the other columns. I would like to automatically deselect "Show All" when any other list item is selected. Adding .Selected(0) = False into the With nest obviously sends it into a loop and crashes Excel. I know it's simple but I'm struggling to figure it out.

    Hello radddogg,

    You should use a CommandButton to run the macro. This will also let the user edit the selections before they are applied.

    Here is an example where the code has been moved to a command button named "ComanndButton1" on the UserForm.

    1. Use code tags. Place [CODE] before the first line of code and [/CODE] after the last line of code.

    Hi,

    I tend to agree about using a button but purely for information you can use a control variable. Add to the top of the form module

    This deselects all other selections when you select All and deselects All when you select any column.

    Surround your VBA code with CODE tags e.g.;
    [CODE]your VBA code here[/CODE]
    The # button in the forum editor will apply CODE tags around your selected text.

    Hi,

    It previously was on a command button but I wanted to simplify the form and make it more intuitive. The current effect works very well. I just wanted to remove the need for the user to have to deselect "Show All" before their selections take place, cheers.
