(? Help) Change Listbox Selected Text Without .additem Or .remove Item
Hi, I browsed through posts and didnt see this question elsewhere so I hope I didnt miss it if it was answered already. If so im sorry.

I was wondering if there is anyway to change the selected text entry for a list box without adding or removing an item.

Example: If there were these options in a list box:

A
B
C

and "B" had been selected by the user is there anyway to change "B" to "D" without using the .additem or the .remove command? If you need me to restate or clarify what im asking please let me know and Ill repost as soon as I see it. Thanks for any help I get in advance.


- Sidenote: I would use a loop and simply add them into another list box and back into that one in a different in the correct order but theres some sticky and touchy coding done on the list box's _click statement that really wouldnt make such a loop possible....if this sidenote didnt make sense sorry its 5 am .

Populate A Listbox Based On A Selected Item In Another Listbox
Ok...I am stumped.

I have a single form that has 3 list boxes. I have 4 public strings containing various values. Based on the selection from lstBox1, I need to populate the ListBox2 and ListBox3 list from values in the public strings. Clear as mud?? That is what I thought!

Example string variable

strLuxury = """Hand Wash"" ""Hand Wax"" ""Check Engine Fluids"" ""Detail Engine Compartment"" ""Detail Under Carriage"" ""Fragrance"" ""Shampoo Carpets"" ""Shampoo Upholstery"" ""Scotchgard"""

ListBox1 contains the following:

Standard
Deluxe
Executive
Luxury

ListBox2 is empty, but is contained in a frame indicating Exterior Options
ListBox3 is empty, but is contained in a frame indicating Interior Options

If Luxury is selected in ListBox1, then ListBox2 should contain
Hand Wash
Hand Wax
Check Engine Fluids
Detail Engine Compartment
Detain Under Carriage

And ListBox3 should contain
Fragrance
Shampoo Carpets
Shampoo Upholstery
Scotchgard

If Fragrance is present in ListBox3, a seperate dropdown box should appear allowing selection of the appropriate scent.

Yes, this is a homework assingment.

Thank you in advance for your help!

Adding An Item From One Listbox To Another Listbox
I have several forms, one with a listbox that displays the selected records of a field from a database. I select(click) one of those records and want to have another particular field from that record display in another listbox on another form. So far it works with this code, but pulls all the records from the first listbox.
To be more specific, the database has populations and zip codes, etc. The field for population is called pop2001 and the zip codes is Zip. The listbox with the selected records displays zipcodes and I want to select one of those zipcodes and have it's population display in the other forms listbox, but it displays all of them. Can anybody help?


Code:
Private Sub Form_Load()

PopRecSet.MoveFirst
Do Until PopRecSet.EOF
frmpopfinal.lstpopfinal.AddItem PopRecSet![pop2001]
PopRecSet.MoveNext
Loop


End Sub

Change Properties Of Item In Text Box...
Uhhh. its probably a long shot, and im sure it probably isnt possible. But..

Is it possible to type something like "Command1" into a text box..

then click a button.. and have it do something to the command button

For example, i type "Command2" into a text box, click a button

and command2 programmically changes its width/height/caption etc...

But i do not want to use control arrays like this:
Command1(Text1.Text).Caption = "hi"

Cheers.

Change Color Of Item In ComboBox
Good afternoon!

I am trying to change certain items listed in a Combo Box to the color red to show a warning to a user.

After hours of research, all I know is that since the ComboBox does not have a forecolor property in VB 6, I have to use an API call...

Which is all good, I've done API calls before, however I don't know which one to use!

Has anyone had any experience with this?

How Can You Change A Menu Item's Color
What I really want to do is to have a menu item and have a box next to it to show the current selected color of the item. What I will settle for it to change the color of the entire menu item to the current selected color. How can either of these be accomplished?

Change Colour Of Menu Item
Hello,

In VB6 I have a normal form with a menu on it (created with the menu editor).

This works fine so no problem there.

What I want to do is change the colour of the text or background of a specific menu item (depending on some checks I perform)

So imagine I have the following menu structure:

<File><New><Blank>


Now if the user has no rights to create a new file, I want the <New> tag to have a red background colour or the text in red.

Invisible or disabled are not an option because the user must be able to click it anyway (he has to be prompted with a message or so after clicking an 'invalid' menu item)

How can I do this with a normal menu?
If ot is not possible, are there other components I can use?

Thanks for your time and your help!

Add Item To ListBox
I'm trying to write a winsock program (but the actual problem doesn't have anything [at least I don't think] to do with Winsock, so I'm posting here). It is a LAN based IM system, and on the server side, it has a list box with connected users. What I'm trying to do is to add the user based on the index of the Winsock object, but I get an "Invalid Procedure Call or Argument" error on that line.

lstUsers.AddItem user(0), Index

user(0) is the user's name, and Index is the Index of the Winsock Object. When I comment out/take out the ", Index" part, the program rusn with no error. Where did I go wrong?
