Hey everyone, I'm facing the following problem:

I have a table where Column A gives me Names and column B gives me the status "done" or "ongoing".
I have a ListBox that populates with all names from column A.
I want to be able to select an item in the List and click a button to change the status in column B for the selected name to "DONE".

There are no userforms.

How would the code for the Button click look like?

Thanks!

Can you sort left to right?
To sort left-to-right, use the Sort dialog box. Click Options. Choose "Sort left to right"
If you have a listbox and a commanbutton of ActiveX controls

Use this:

Code:
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
    If ListBox1.ListIndex = -1 Then
        MsgBox "Select a name"
    Else
        Cells(ListBox1.ListIndex + 2, "B").Value = "done"
    End If
End Sub
