Word VBA - Listboxes Swapping Round

Hi,

I have a bit of an odd problem. In my document, I have a multipage in a userform. Page 0 of the multipage is a template, if you like, (visibility = False) with a couple of listboxes and comboboxes on it.
If a certain condition is met, it triggers the creation of a new 'tab' (multipage page) and copies and pastes the controls from page 0, onto the new page... For some reason, though, the listbox options in these new pages seem to be showing on the wrong listbox.

HOWEVER... this doesn't happen all the time. It appears to be a bug of sorts, as it seems that if I switch the listbox (control) numbers around in the 'initialize' sub, where the code populates the listboxes with different arrays, and then switch the numbers back again, then close the VBA editor and reopen the userform, this somehow seems to sort it. I have absolutely no idea what's causing this and just wondered if anybody else had experienced a similar issue.

It seems that now, trying the control number switching technique no longer works. As it is, I'm stuck with previously selected options from listbox 1 (as determined in the 'initialize' sub) being shown (selected) on listbox 2 instead of listbox 1, even though the selected item isn't even included in the initialize array for listbox 2.

Hopefully that made some sort of sense, although I couldn't be more confused at the moment.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Cheers,
Luke
