Can anyone help. I've created a userform and everything functions as it should.

However when I send the email using the command button, the email arrives buts is missing any listbox information.

I've created a formula which will display cell data based on a range in a worksheet.

I've done similar with combobox drop down boxes and the data arrives fine.

The email is sent as plain text but whatever I try I can't get listbox info to show

My Code as follows

Private Sub CommandButton2_Click()
Dim aOutlook As Object
Dim aEmail As Object
Dim rngeAddresses As Range, rngeCell As Range, strRecipients As String

Set aOutlook = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
Set aEmail = aOutlook.CreateItem(0)

'set Importance
aEmail.Importance = 1
'Set Subject
aEmail.Subject = "Planned Lock Request Change"
'Set Body for mail
aEmail.Body = "Promised Delivery Date: " & Me.TextBox1.Value & Chr(10) & _
"Person Making the Request: " & Me.ComboBox1.Value & Chr(10) & _
"Reason For Making the Request: " & Me.ComboBox2.Value & Chr(10) & _
"Customer Name: " & Me.ComboBox3.Value & Chr(10) & _
"Order Number: " & Me.TextBox8.Value & Chr(10) & _
"Customer Tier Level: " & Me.TextBox2.Value & Chr(10) & _
"Total Cost of the Order: " & Me.TextBox3.Value & Chr(10) & _
"Product Code: " & Me.ComboBox6.Value & Chr(10) & _
"Product Name and Pack Size: " & Me.ListBox2.Value & Chr(10) & _
"Quantity: " & Me.TextBox5.Value & Chr(10) & _
"Product Code: " & Me.ComboBox7.Value & Chr(10) & _
"Product Name and Pack Size: " & Me.ListBox3.Value & Chr(10) & _
"Quantity: " & Me.TextBox6.Value & Chr(10) & _
"Product Code: " & Me.ComboBox8.Value & Chr(10) & _
"Product Name and Pack Size: " & Me.ListBox4.Value & Chr(10) & _
"Quantity: " & Me.TextBox7.Value & Chr(10) & _
"Notes: " & Me.TextBox4.Value

'send one off to 1 person use this static code
'aEmail.Recipients.Add " "
aEmail.Recipients.Add " "
'Send Mail
aEmail.Send
End Sub

Thanks in Advance
 

Excel Facts

Show numbers in thousands?
Use a custom number format of #,##0,K. Each comma after the final 0 will divide the displayed number by another thousand
I would explain it this way: a combo or a textbox is a like bucket with one marble in it. That's why you can send its contents. A listbox is like a bucket of marbles, which you can't send en masse (at least not as far as I know). But you can loop over the list and send all the items in some other form (e.g. a string variable or set of variables), or you can retrieve one list item from it and send that. If you want to get the selected item from the listbox you can use its .ListIndex property value. To get a value from the nth row, use .List ( 0 , 0 ) property value. I had to insert spaces there to avoid getting a thumbs down emoji, yet not on the second example (??). That assumes the lb has only one column. If not, you will need to include the column number. Both properties are zero based collections, so first row and column is (0,0).

As an aside, after years of doing this, old codgers like me look at code posted like that and the eyes just glaze over 🥴.
Please post code between code tags (use vba button on posting toolbar) with proper indentation.
