    VBA userform, filter listbox value as the user type in the textbox

    I have found a code from this forum made by haripopuri member (I'm sorry as I'm a new member, I'm not allowed to post a link in my post) like this :

    I don't understand how it works, but anyway after I tried the code, the result is similar to what I'm expecting.

    But what I want is actually the userform has one TextBox and one ListBox.
    The ListBox I've already populated from a named range (already in a unique value) using ListBox Property "RowSource".
    For example, the ListBox (after populated) now show a list :
    Apple
    Apricot
    Approach
    Alpine
    April
    Aladin 100
    Aladin 200
    Breast
    Brown
    Bandit

    I want those list filtered as I type in the TextBox (update automatically).
    For example, when the first character I type in the TexBox is "a" (without apostrophe), then the ListBox show Apple, Appricot, Alpine, Aladin 100 and Aladin 200.

    When I continue put one more character "p", so now the TextBox value is "ap" , then the ListBox show Apple, Apricot, Approach
    When I continue put one more character "pp", so now the TextBox value is "app" , then the ListBox show Apple, Approach.

    If I backspace, deleting the "pp" then put character "L", so now the TextBox value is "al", then the ListBox show Aladin 100 and Aladin 200.
    (The filtering is something like when filtering a table in a sheet by using Text Filter option "begins with").

    If I delete all the character in the TextBox (so there is nothing there), then the ListBox show all the list value in the named range (default value).
    Then ff I type in the TextBox characater "b" (without apostrophe), then the ListBox show Breast, Brown, Bandit.

    So, what is the code to "trigger" the ListBox filtered by the value in the TextBox as the user type there ?
    Any kind of respond would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you in advanced.

    Change the named range to suit.

    Please Login or Register  to view this content.
    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.

    You're welcome. Thanks for the feedback.

    Bonus filter: If you enter in the textbox *ri, it will filter the list for items that contain ri.

    Bonus filter2: Enter ??p and filter the list for the 3rd character p.
