Whats the difference between CONCAT and CONCATENATE?
The newer CONCAT function can reference a range of cells. =CONCATENATE(A1,A2,A3,A4,A5) becomes =CONCAT(A1:A5)

hi bro tank u for answer
I made this based on what you said, the form runs without errors
But it does not search for anything
When something is selected from the list box or when something is written in the text box, nothing happens in the list box

what is the reason?

i
VBA Code:
Option Explicit

Dim a As Variant

Private Sub Combobox1_change()
  Call FilterData
End Sub

Private Sub TextBox1_Change()
  Call FilterData
End Sub

Sub FilterData()
  Dim cmb As String, txt As String
  Dim b As Variant
  Dim i As Long, j As Long
 
  ReDim b(1 To UBound(a), 1 To 2)
  ListBox1.Clear
  For i = 1 To UBound(a)
    If ComboBox1.Value = "" Then cmb = a(i, 4) Else cmb = ComboBox1.Value
    If TextBox1.Value = "" Then txt = a(i, 1) Else txt = TextBox1.Value
    If a(i, 4) = ComboBox1.Value And LCase(a(i, 1)) Like LCase(txt) & "*" Then
      j = j + 1
      b(j, 1) = a(i, 1)
      b(j, 2) = a(i, 4)
    End If
  Next i
  If j > 0 Then ListBox1.List = b
End Sub

Private Sub userform_initialize()
  Dim ws As Worksheet
    Dim comboValues As Variant
    Set ws = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("sheet1")
    Dim lastRow As Long
    Dim dataRange As Range

     ComboBox1.List = Array(ws.Cells(1, 1).Value, ws.Cells(1, 2).Value, ws.Cells(1, 3).Value, ws.Cells(1, 4).Value, ws.Cells(1, 5).Value, ws.Cells(1, 6).Value, ws.Cells(1, 7).Value, ws.Cells(1, 8).Value)
ListBox1.ColumnCount = 4

lastRow = ws.Cells(ws.Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row

Set dataRange = ws.Range("A2:H" & lastRow)
a = dataRange.Value
End Sub

You need to adapt the code to the columns where you are going to perform the search.

In which column do you want to search for what you select in the combobox?

In which column do you want to search for what you select in the Textbox?

Replace all your code for this:

VBA Code:
Option Explicit

Dim a As Variant

Private Sub Combobox1_change()
  Call FilterData
End Sub

Private Sub TextBox1_Change()
  Call FilterData
End Sub

Sub FilterData()
  Dim cmb As String, txt As String
  Dim b As Variant
  Dim i As Long, j As Long, k As Long, col As Long
 
  ReDim b(1 To UBound(a, 1), 1 To UBound(a, 2))
  ListBox1.Clear
  If ComboBox1.ListIndex = -1 Then Exit Sub
  
  col = ComboBox1.ListIndex + 1
  For i = 1 To UBound(a)
    If TextBox1.Value = "" Then txt = a(i, col) Else txt = TextBox1.Value
    If LCase(a(i, col)) Like "*" & LCase(txt) & "*" Then
      k = k + 1
      For j = 1 To 8
        b(k, j) = a(i, j)
      Next
    End If
  Next i
  If k > 0 Then ListBox1.List = b
End Sub

Private Sub userform_initialize()
  Dim ws As Worksheet
  
  Set ws = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("sheet1")
  ComboBox1.List = Application.Transpose(ws.Range("A1:H1").Value)
  ListBox1.ColumnCount = 8
  a = ws.Range("A2:H" & ws.Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row).Value
End Sub

Hello، my good friend.
If I don't want to show anything in the listbox ,until I select the Combobox and enter the word in text box, where should I change the code?
when i select one item in combobox the list box is populate
i used this but its not work
VBA Code:
 If k > 0 And textbox1.value> 1 Then ListBox1.List = b

Is it possible to do something that if something is inserted in the textbox، it will be in the whole column، and if the combo box is selected، it will search only in that column.

For that.
After this line:
If ComboBox1.ListIndex = -1 Then Exit Sub

Add this line:
If TextBox1.Value = "" Then Exit Sub

The search already does that, it only searches the column selected in the combo.
