private void ListObject_SelectionChange()
{
    Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.ListObject list1 =
        this.Controls.AddListObject(
        this.Range["A1", "C4"], "list1");
    list1.SelectionChange += new Microsoft.Office.Interop.
        Excel.DocEvents_SelectionChangeEventHandler(
        list1_SelectionChange);
}

void list1_SelectionChange(Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Range Target)
{
    MessageBox.Show("The selection in the list object has changed.");
}

WithEvents SelectionChangeList As Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.ListObject
Private Sub ListObject_SelectionChange()
    SelectionChangeList = Me.Controls.AddListObject( _
        Me.Range("A1", "C4"), "SelectionChangeList")
End Sub


Sub List1_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As _
    Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Range) _
    Handles SelectionChangeList.SelectionChange
    MessageBox.Show("The selection in the list object has changed.")
End Sub

This version is for an application-level add-in.

private void ListObject_SelectionChange()
{
    Worksheet vstoWorksheet =
            Globals.Factory.GetVstoObject(this.Application.ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets[1]); ;
    ListObject list1 =
        vstoWorksheet.Controls.AddListObject(
        vstoWorksheet.Range["A1", "C4"], "list1");
    list1.SelectionChange += new 
        Excel.DocEvents_SelectionChangeEventHandler(
        list1_SelectionChange);
}

void list1_SelectionChange(Excel.Range Target)
{
    System.Windows.Forms.MessageBox.Show("The selection in the list object has changed.");
}

WithEvents SelectionChangeList As ListObject
Private Sub ListObject_SelectionChange()
    Dim NativeWorksheet As Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Worksheet =
        Me.Application.Worksheets(1)
    Dim vstoWorksheet As Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.Worksheet =
            Globals.Factory.GetVstoObject(NativeWorksheet)
    SelectionChangeList = vstoWorksheet.Controls.AddListObject( _
        vstoWorksheet.Range("A1", "C4"), "SelectionChangeList")
End Sub


Sub List1_SelectionChange(ByVal Target As  _
    Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Range) _
    Handles SelectionChangeList.SelectionChange
    System.Windows.Forms.MessageBox.Show( _
        "The selection in the list object has changed.")
End Sub
