Excel Listbox Hide/Unhide Sheets

Question

I have a ListBox (embedded in a sheet) that (upon clicking a button to refresh as needed) will fill with the names of all the sheets in the workbook. (Each has a checkbox to go with it.)

Code:

Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()

    Dim i As Long
    Me.ListBox1.Clear
    For i = 1 To Sheets.Count
        Me.ListBox1.AddItem Sheets(i).Name
    Next

End Sub

I have tried some various options, but cant sort out a solution as to how to unhide and hide the sheets if they are checked and unchecked, respectively. (And to check/uncheck them if a user manually unhides or hides sheets the old fashioned way.)

Any help is appreciated. Thank you!

I am open to making it in a floating userform as well, if you have any tips. — mitchmitch24

Try this:

Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
    Dim i As Long

    Me.ListBox1.Clear

    For i = 1 To Worksheets.count
        Me.ListBox1.AddItem Worksheets(i).Name

        If Worksheets(i).Visible Then
           Me.ListBox1.Selected(i - 1) = True
        End If
    Next
End Sub

Private Sub ListBox1_Change()
    Dim i As Integer
    For i = 0 To Me.ListBox1.ListCount - 1
        If Me.ListBox1.Selected(i) Then
            Worksheets(Me.ListBox1.List(i)).Visible = True
        Else
            Worksheets(Me.ListBox1.List(i)).Visible = False
        End If
    Next i
End Sub

CommandButtton1 click will populate listbox with sheet names and checkbox
ListBox1_Change will hide/unhide sheets as per checkbox value
