in VBA for excel how would i go about the following loop:
I have a listbox(LBanimals), Button(BTNcombine) and a textbox(TBcombined).
Say the listbox is populated with: Dog, Cat, lion.
I want to click the button to combine these and display Dog + Cat + Lion in the textbox.
any ideas?
To best describe or illustrate your problem you would be better off attaching a dummy workbook, the workbook should contain the same structure and some dummy data of the same type as the type you have in your real workbook - so, if a cell contains numbers & letters in this format abc-123 then that should be reflected in the dummy workbook. Don't upload a picture when you have a workbook. None of us is inclined to recreate your data. Upload the workbook and manually add an 'after' situation so that we can see what you expect. In addition clearly explain how you get the results.
To attach a file to your post, you need to be using the main 'New Post' or 'New Thread' page and not 'Quick Reply'.
To use the main 'New Post' page, click the 'Post Reply' button in the relevant thread.
On this page, below the message box, you will find a button labelled 'Manage Attachments'.
Clicking this button will open a new window for uploading attachments.
You can upload an attachment either from your computer or from another URL by using the appropriate box on this page.
Alternatively you can click the Attachment Icon to open this page.
To upload a file from your computer, click the 'Browse' button and locate the file.
To upload a file from another URL, enter the full URL for the file in the second box on this page.
Once you have completed one of the boxes, click 'Upload'.
Once the upload is completed the file name will appear below the input boxes in this window.
You can then close the window to return to the new post screen.

So here is a small demo attached
first an animal is added via a textbox and commandbutton and saved in a listbox.
The next step is where i am stuck... i cant get the listbox entries to combine to show in the textbox.
example when the listbox display Fish Cat Dog and the combine button is click the textbox should display Fish + Cat + Dog.
So it should be a loop of some kind since the listbox entries may vary depending on what the user has inserted.
MY loops are all an epic fail...
Hi st0kvis
with LBanimals set to multiselect
Private Sub CBcombine_Click() Dim i As Long, temp As String With LBanimals For i = 0 To .ListCount - 1 If .Selected(i) Then temp = temp & IIf(temp <> "", " +", "") & .List(i) End If Next i End With TBcombineanimals.Value = temp End Sub
