ListBox control, ColumnCount, ColumnWidths properties example

The following example uses the ColumnWidths property to change the column widths of a multicolumn ListBox. The example uses three TextBox controls to specify the individual column widths and uses the Exit event to specify the units of measure of each TextBox. See also the ColumnCount property.

To use this example, copy this sample code to the Declarations portion of a form. Make sure that the form contains:

  • A ListBox named ListBox1.
  • Three TextBox controls named TextBox1 through TextBox3.
  • A CommandButton named CommandButton1.

Try entering the value 0 to hide a column.

Dim MyArray(2, 3) As String 
 
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click() 
 'ColumnWidths requires a value for each column 
 'separated by semicolons 
 ListBox1.ColumnWidths = TextBox1.Text & ";" _ 
 & TextBox2.Text & ";" & TextBox3.Text 
End Sub
Private Sub TextBox1_Exit(ByVal Cancel As _ 
 MSForms.ReturnBoolean) 
 'ColumnWidths accepts points (no units), inches 
 'or centimeters; make inches the default 
 If Not (InStr(TextBox1.Text, "in") > 0 Or _ 
 InStr(TextBox1.Text, "cm") > 0) Then 
 TextBox1.Text = TextBox1.Text & " in" 
 End If 
End Sub
Private Sub TextBox2_Exit(ByVal Cancel As _ 
 MSForms.ReturnBoolean) 
 'ColumnWidths accepts points (no units), inches 
 'or centimeters; make inches the default 
 If Not (InStr(TextBox2.Text, "in") > 0 Or _ 
 InStr(TextBox2.Text, "cm") > 0) Then 
 TextBox2.Text = TextBox2.Text & " in" 
 End If 
End Sub
Private Sub TextBox3_Exit(ByVal Cancel as MSForms.ReturnBoolean) 
 'ColumnWidths accepts points (no units), inches or 
 'centimeters; make inches the default 
 If Not (InStr(TextBox3.Text, "in") > 0 Or _ 
 InStr(TextBox3.Text, "cm") > 0) Then 
 TextBox3.Text = TextBox3.Text & " in" 
 End If 
End Sub
Private Sub UserForm_Initialize() 
Dim i, j, Rows As Single 
 
ListBox1.ColumnCount = 3 
Rows = 2 
 
For j = 0 To ListBox1.ColumnCount - 1 
 For i = 0 To Rows - 1 
 MyArray(i, j) = "Row " & i & ", Column " & j 
 Next i 
Next j 
'Load MyArray into ListBox1 
ListBox1.List() = MyArray 
'1-inch columns initially 
TextBox1.Text = "1 in" 
TextBox2.Text = "1 in" 
TextBox3.Text = "1 in" 
End Sub
