Hide Tabs Based on the Choice of Multiple Items from Drop Down List

[knopp]

Hello, I have a question regarding how to hide multiple sheets based on a user's selection from a drop down list. My spreadsheet has around 60 tabs (the sample only shows 30) and only 15-30 of these will be in use for a project. I would like the user to be able to use the drop down list to select which tabs they would like for the project and hide the rest.


I have attached an image of my attempt at solving this problem in VBA, however the code does not allow for multiple selections and is not hiding the correct sheets. I also attached images of the drop-down list and range it is pulling from.


Does anyone know the solution to this issue? I have tried a lot of things but have not been successful. Any help would be much appreciated!

Not really, I seldom use controls on a sheet, I prefer to use userforms instead.

Is this something that could be done with a userform?

Yes it could be, using a multiselect listbox, rather than a combobox.

Thank you so much!! The listbox worked great!! I combined it with my formula above and it worked perfectly!! Thank you again!
