    Display Listbox values

    Hi,

    I'm sure this is a simply one, but I was wondering if anybody could tell me the best way to display the value of three seperate listboxes as a string of text in a seperate cell.

    So for example:

    Listbox1 = London
    Listbox2 = House
    Listbox3 = SE7

    So in cell A1 its says

    "London House SE7"

    Many thanks in advance

    What kind of listboxes and where are they located?
    Everyone who confuses correlation and causation ends up dead.

    See attached for basic example using listboxes from Forms and Active-X controls.

    A Forms Listbox returns an index value to a linked cell, so you will need to do a look up in order to join the text strings.

    Basic code for Forms list box (assigned to a button). Linked cells are on row1, look up cells are on row2 and the code writes the string to cell A10.

    With an Active-X listbox you can directly join the value in the control.
