Hi there,

I am having trouble displaying the values in my listboxes. I have 5 textboxes and two listboxes on my form. I can display the numbers in the trextboxes using return textbo1.text & textbox2.text etc...etc.. Now for my two listboxes I am using return listbox1.selectedValue which does not work unless I actually highlight the value on my form which I dont want to do.I just want to use the scroll bars select my desired number and go on from there.

Could anyone please help me with this ??

Thanks for you time

You programmaticaly select the list value, so that you will get the value.

It is not how much we do,
but how much love we put in the doing.

Huh ?

Brett,

I am a little confused. Do you want to pull the item's text from the list box or it's index, or do you want to set it to a value within the listbox?

I think I can see what you are trying to do.

You are using the listbox control, reduced in height so only one item is visible at any one time. By clicking the scrolls, you can search through the items in the collection, bringing one 'to the top'. But, I don't think you can programmatically work out which item is 'on top'.

Try using the domainupdown control instead. This will work. The selected item is by default, the item that is scrolled to.

I hope that make sense.
