create a form with a listbox (list1) a label (label1) and enter the code



Private Sub Form_Load()
List1.AddItem "test1"
List1.AddItem "test2"
List1.AddItem "test3"
List1.AddItem "test4"
List1.AddItem "test5"
' this will add 5 entries into the list box

End Sub

Private Sub List1_Click()
Label1.Caption = "the item you selected is: " & List1.List(List1.ListIndex) & Chr(10) & Chr(13) & " Its index associated with it is: " & List1.ListIndex

'on the event that the list box is clicked, it will change the caption of the label using the listindex of list1.
'CHR(10) & CHR(13) is a 'return'

End Sub




this should give you a decent understanding of the list box.
