OK, I think I've got you covered. Try this example:

Put two listboxes on the form. IMPORTANT: Make sure the SORTED property of both is set to TRUE.

Put a command button on your form (caption might be "Compare").

Copy and paste this code into your form:

Code:

---

Option Explicit

Private Sub Form_Load()


    With List1
        .AddItem "aardvark"
        .AddItem "bird"
        .AddItem "dog"
        .AddItem "elephant"
        .AddItem "hippo"
    End With

    With List2
        .AddItem "aardvark"
        .AddItem "bird"
        .AddItem "cat"
        .AddItem "dog"
        .AddItem "hippo"
        .AddItem "rhino"
    End With

End Sub

Private Sub Command1_Click()

    Dim intList1X  As Integer
    Dim intList2X  As Integer
    Dim intI        As Integer
   
    intList1X = 0
    intList2X = 0
   
    Do Until intList1X > (List1.ListCount - 1) Or intList2X > (List2.ListCount - 1)
        If List1.List(intList1X) = List2.List(intList2X) Then
            ' We have a match, so just look at the next item
            ' in each box (by advancing the index for each)
            intList1X = intList1X + 1
            intList2X = intList2X + 1
        ElseIf List1.List(intList1X) < List2.List(intList2X) Then
            ' This is a situation where we have an item in List1
            ' that is not in List2. Display a message, and only
            ' advance the index for List1
            MsgBox "The item '" & List1.List(intList1X) _
                & "' is in List1 but not in List2."
            intList1X = intList1X + 1
        Else
            ' The only other condition we could have here is that
            ' List1.List(intList1X) > List2.List(intList2X).
            ' This is a situation where we have an item in List2
            ' that is not in List1. Display a message, and only
            ' advance the index for List2.
            MsgBox "The item '" & List2.List(intList2X) _
                & "' is in List2 but not in List1."
            intList2X = intList2X + 1
        End If
    Loop
   
    ' At this point, we have looked at all of the items in at least one
    ' of the lists. Any remaining items in either list have no match.
    ' To display these, loop thru the remaining items of each list,
    ' starting with the last value of our index variable.  The loop for the
    ' list whose items we have exhausted will never execute.
   
    For intI = intList1X To List1.ListCount - 1
        MsgBox "The item '" & List1.List(intI) _
            & "' is in List1 but not in List2."
    Next
           
    For intI = intList2X To List2.ListCount - 1
        MsgBox "The item '" & List2.List(intI) _
            & "' is in List2 but not in List1."
    Next

End Sub
