List Box Choice becomes variable text
#1
Hi All,
I know there must be a shortcut for doing this just can't seem to figure it out. I have a listbox with a large number of names in the form:

Macro
Code:
Copy      Help
sel(list("Name1[]name2[]Name3[]Name4[]etc..." "test" "test"))

The only options I have for dealing with the user choice is to break it down in cases like this:

Macro
Code:
Copy      Help
,case 1
,case 2
,case 3
,case 4
,case else ret

or storing it into variable _i as numbered index.

But my case is very simple: the text of the users choice (e.g. Name2) is assigned to a certain variable (e.g. NameChoice)

I know I could write that out for each case but it seems too brute force - I am sure there is an elegant much shorter way of doing it!

Thanks for any help,
Stuart
