This is probably the best you can do,

can i add code to a list and then select it from a list and when i click a command button it makes that code work? like an example... i write in text1 = Unload Me click commandbuttonAdd and it goes to list1 and then i select in list1 Unload Me and click commandbuttonDo and it makes the code work? so when i do select it from list1 and clikc that button it unloads the form

[Max187Boucher]

i noticed that is i put a space in the item from the list its not gonna work

Public Sub UnloadMe()
Unload Me
End Sub

Private Sub Form_Load()

List1.AddItem "Hello"
List1.AddItem "Procedure1"
List1.AddItem "AnotherProcedure"
List1.AddItem "Unload Me"

it doesnt detect unload me because of the space

[MartinLiss]

That's because they have to be valid procedure names and so they can't contain a space. To get around that you could create an UnloadMe sub that has Unload Me as it's one line of code.
