How to filter listbox values based on a Textbox value

I sure hope the following piece of code is what you are looking for.

Private Sub Textbox1_Change()

Dim i As Long
Dim arrList As Variant

Me.ListBox1.Clear
If TMP.Range("A" & TMP.Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row > 1 And Trim(Me.TextBox1.Value) <> vbNullString Then
    arrList = TMP.Range("A1:A" & TMP.Range("A" & TMP.Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row).Value2
    For i = LBound(arrList) To UBound(arrList)
        If InStr(1, arrList(i, 1), Trim(Me.TextBox1.Value), vbTextCompare) Then
            Me.ListBox1.AddItem arrList(i, 1)
        End If
    Next i
End If
If Me.ListBox1.ListCount = 1 Then Me.ListBox1.Selected(0) = True

End Sub

Note that this sub does not make use of the AutoFilter on the sheet TMP. Therefore, the sub is a bit faster. Also, if you wish to filter your data on the sheet, this sub won’t delete / change your current filter settings.

The line at the end If Me.ListBox1.ListCount = 1 Then Me.ListBox1.Selected(0) = True is not really necessary but rather for your convenience. It ensures that the item is automatically selected in the ListBox if there is only 1 item in the list.
