Hi!

You can disable an item in listbox only by adding "\" before the item text. This means that you can use AddItem("\"+lcText,...). When you have multiple columns, you have to do this for all columns to disable item. Unfortunately, there are 2 problems with this:
1. When you change the Enabled property value for combobox/listbox, all items will be disabled or enabled losing their original state.
2. No way to determine programmatically if item is disabled.

Because 2 things above, you require to store somewhere additional informationa bot which item is disabled. In your case, it is enough to remember what item was added to listbox just to show value of the field in ControlSource.

HTH.
