Hi,
I've been struggling with this seemingly simple problem for two days now!! How can I reference a value in a listbox? Nothing I try seems to work!! This is my current code:
 Me!lstCheckOut.SetFocus
 Me!lstCheckOut.Selected(0) = True
 data = lstCheckOut.ItemData(0)
 MsgBox data

Please help if you can.
Thanks,
Dave

Dave,
Your listbox values are indexed from 0. you have to loop thru them until you find the one that has been selected. This example shows with an index on the listbox.

   For I = 0 To Me.lstCheckOut.ListCount - 1
      If Me.LstCheckOut.Selected(I) = True Then
         MsgBox Me.LstCheckOut.Column(1, I)
      End If
   Next I

Hope this helps.

Kevin,

Thanks for responding. I wanted to loop through them whether they were selected or not. This is how I got it to work:
For i = 0 To lstCheckOut.ListCount - 1
    Me!lstCheckOut.SetFocus
    data = lstCheckOut.Column(0, i)
    MsgBox data
Next i

Thanks Again,
Dave

Glad to help. Didn't realize you wanted to loop through them. You could shorten that code:
For I = 0 to lstCheckout.listcount - 1
  msgbox lstCheckout.column(0,I)
next I

You don't have to set the focus, or move the data to a variable, unless you need to for another reason.
