How to prevent listbox horizontal scrollbar
Requirement:
The user is playing around with listboxes for the first time and can't work out how to prevent a horizontal scrollbar appearing in the event that Excel decides the text is too wide...
The data that the user is populating in the listbox is only a few characters long, but Excel seems to demand that the listbox be approximately 2.5 times the width of the text before it will stop forcing a scrollbar.
Solution:
Change the ColumnWidths in the listbox properties to something like 5pt.
