How to show a list of information in form of table which has to be in enable mode so that a user can copy information from table.

for example: If I select entry A from combobox1 then information related to A from sheet1 will show in a table.

Sheet1 base data is as follows:

a   xxx-12    pink    xxx-13    yellow
b   xxx-25    black   xxx-01    white
c   xxx-95    red     xxx-58    green
d   xxx-11    cyan    xxx-77    brown
e   xxx-78    blue    xxx-54    orange

If I select data a, b,c,d and e from combobox1 then above related information should show in case of table.

Thanks.

Hi YuDi Sri,
hope this helps you, used a
Combo box(CBox) and
List View(ListView)

VB

Private Sub UserForm_Initialize()
    Worksheets("Sheet1").Activate
    If WorksheetFunction.CountA(Cells) > 0 Then
    ' to fetch the total used row's in sheet 1
        sv_Sheet1RowCount = Cells.Find(What:="*", After:=[A1], SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlPrevious).Row
    End If
    If sv_Sheet1RowCount > 1 Then
        CBox1.Clear
        For Rowi = 1 To sv_Sheet1RowCount
            CBox1.AddItem Worksheets("Sheet1").Cells(Rowi, 1).Value
        Next
    End If
End Sub

Private Sub CBox1_Change()
    Worksheets("Sheet1").Activate
    If WorksheetFunction.CountA(Cells) > 0 Then
    ' to fetch the total used row's in sheet 1
        sv_Sheet1RowCount = Cells.Find(What:="*", After:=[A1], SearchOrder:=xlByRows, SearchDirection:=xlPrevious).Row
    End If
    With ListView
        ' Clear every time a new item is selected
        .ListItems.Clear
        ' Select the item and subitems when selection is made.
        .FullRowSelect = True
        ' Display grid lines.
        .Gridlines = True
        'Display Column Header
        .ColumnHeaders.Add Text:="a"
        .ColumnHeaders.Add Text:="b"
        .ColumnHeaders.Add Text:="c"
        .ColumnHeaders.Add Text:="d"
        .ColumnHeaders.Add Text:="e"
        .View = lvwReport
    End With
    If sv_Sheet1RowCount > 1 Then
        For Rowi = 1 To sv_Sheet1RowCount
            If CBox1.Text = Worksheets("Sheet1").Cells(Rowi, 1).Value Then
                With ListView
                    .ListItems.Add , , Worksheets("Sheet1").Cells(Rowi, 1).Value
                    .ListItems(1).SubItems(1) = Worksheets("Sheet1").Cells(Rowi, 2).Value
                    .ListItems(1).SubItems(2) = Worksheets("Sheet1").Cells(Rowi, 3).Value
                    .ListItems(1).SubItems(3) = Worksheets("Sheet1").Cells(Rowi, 4).Value
                    .ListItems(1).SubItems(4) = Worksheets("Sheet1").Cells(Rowi, 5).Value
                End With
                Exit For
            End If
        Next
    End If
End Sub

As you wish...

VB

Option Explicit 'you must declare variables!

Private Sub CmdFilter_Click()
Dim wsh As Worksheet 'declare object variable of worksheet
Dim i As Integer 'declare integer variable
Dim cmbval As String

On Error GoTo Err_CmdFilter_Click 'on error goto error-handler

Set wsh = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets(1) 'set variable

cmbval = Me.ComboBox1.Value
Me.ListBox1.ColumnCount = 5 'set the count of columns

i = 1 'start from row no. 1
Do While wsh.Range("A" & i) <> ""
    If wsh.Range("A" & i) = cmbval Then
        With Me.ListBox1
            .AddItem "" 'add empty string
            .Column(0, .ListCount - 1) = wsh.Range("A" & i) 'column 1, row i
            .Column(1, .ListCount - 1) = wsh.Range("B" & i) 'column 2, row i
            .Column(2, .ListCount - 1) = wsh.Range("C" & i) 'column 3, row i
            .Column(3, .ListCount - 1) = wsh.Range("D" & i) 'column 4, row i
            .Column(4, .ListCount - 1) = wsh.Range("E" & i) 'column 5, row i
        End With
        Exit Do
    End If
    i = i + 1
Loop
 
Exit_CmdFilter_Click:
    On Error Resume Next 'ignore errors
    Set wsh = Nothing 'destroy variable
    Exit Sub
    
Err_CmdFilter_Click:
    MsgBox Err.Description, vbExclamation, Err.Number
    Resume Exit_CmdFilter_Click
End Sub

Private Sub UserForm_Initialize()
Dim wsh As Worksheet 'declare object variable of worksheet
Dim i As Integer 'declare integer variable

On Error GoTo Err_UserForm_Initialize 'on error goto error-handler

Set wsh = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets(1) 'set variable

i = 1 'start from row no. 1
Do While wsh.Range("A" & i) <> ""
    Me.ComboBox1.AddItem wsh.Range("A" & i)
    i = i + 1
Loop
 
Exit_UserForm_Initialize:
    On Error Resume Next 'ignore errors
    Set wsh = Nothing 'destroy variable
    Exit Sub
    
Err_UserForm_Initialize:
    MsgBox Err.Description, vbExclamation, Err.Number
    Resume Exit_UserForm_Initialize
End Sub
