If yes then how?

Thanks

Not from a combo box, but you can from a list box. There's a property on the list box called Multi Select. Change that to Simple.You wiil obvously need code somewhere to carry out the instructions. Depends on what you want to do.

ListBox only

In properties window go to the other tab and set Multi Select to Simple

Then you can use the following code somewhere:

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1.  
  2. Dim tmpItem As Variant
  3.  
  4. For Each tmpItem In listBoxName.ItemsSelected
  5.  
  6. ' do something
  7. ' reference each object individually using
  8. <something> = listBoxName.ItemData(tmpItem)
  9.  
  10. Next tmpItem
  11.
