Listbox: Change Text Of Selected Item
hi all,
just wondering if anyone knows a way of changing the text of the selcected item in a list box?
for example: if i have a listbox with the following list items:
one
two
three
four
and "two" is selected, and i need to change its text to "this one".
i would like to avoid regenerating the list by clearing it and adding all the items again if possible.
thanks for your time and consideration,

(? 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

- 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 .

Change ComboBox Text When Item Selected
I though this would be easy, I have a ComboBox style set to 0, and the list is populated from a dB. What I want to do is have the default Text change to the selected item when the list reloads. Here is the code;
Code:' Populate the Type list
cboEntryType.Clear
If Len(sqlQuery) > 2 Then
cboEntryType.Text = sqlQuery
Else
cboEntryType.Text = " All"
End If
For i = 0 To m_TypeRows
str9 = " " & m_varTypes(0, i) & " " ' Entry Types
cboEntryType.AddItem str9
Next
sqlQuery is a parameter sent to another function that returns the ListItems, if I set a watch on the var sqlQuery it does indeed have a valid value, but when the box is displayed the Text is " " with focus on the box.

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!

Always Have Last Item In Listbox Selected
How can I make it so the last item in a listbox be selected, even after new items are added. For instance, lets say I had four items in a listbox like this:
I'm one
I'm two
I'm three
I'm four
At this point I'd want "I'm four" to be selected and if I added another item like this:
I'm one
I'm two
I'm three
I'm four
I'm five
Then at this point I would want "I'm five" to be selected. Does anyone know of a way to do this ?
Thanks in advance for any help!

Scroll To Selected Item In Listbox
Hi guys,
I'm in Access. I have a form with a listbox and a combobox with the same values. The user selects the value in combobox, clicks the button, and the same item gets selected in the listbox. The problem is that the listbox doesn't scroll to the selected item automatically. Here is my code:
For i = 0 To Me.storeNumber.ListCount - 1
If Me.storeNumCombo.Value = Me.storeNumber.ItemData(i) Then
Me.storeNumber.Selected(i) = True
End If
Next i
This code selects an item in the listbox every time I press the button leaving previously selected items selected too.
I've been looking for solution suitable for me and found this code:
For i = 0 To Me.storeNumber.ListCount - 1
If Me.storeNumCombo.Value = Me.storeNumber.ItemData(i) Then
Me.storeNumber.setFocus
Me.storeNumber.ListIndex = i
End If
Next i
It does scroll to the selected item. However, every time I click the button it clears previously selected item and selects the new one that I selected in combobox. And I don't need that clearing. Any ideas on how to avoid this? Thanks in advance.

Selected Listbox Item Into A Second Funcion.
I looked everywhere and didn't find an clues to solve my problem. One of wksheets as all my items listed alphabetically. Column A all the a's, B all the b's, etc. I have a userform with a listbox that displays one of my columns based on which letter the user chooses (from my main userform). Each column has a different number of entries, so each respective listbox has a different number of lines in it.
On the same userform (with the listbox) I have a command button that runs a search and display function based on what item is selected in the listbox.
Basically this funcion searches for whatever item name is selected in the list box (the actual text).
I cannot figure out how to get my selected listbox line to display its text in my second function
If C.Value Like "item name" Then.....
So I need the text from the listbox item, to display as item name in my second function
Any help is awesome. Thanks in advance.
Showing A Selected Item In A Listbox
I've got a textbox which the user can input text. I also have a list of already existing items. Doing the search for the item, isn't a problem. However, I wish to select the item, and then make sure it is in the visible portion of the list box.
Actually, getting the item selected isn't a problem. It's getting the selected item into the visible portion of the listbox that is giving me problems. Anyone have any ideas?
Removing A Selected Item From Listbox
I'm not familiar with using the For statement but I gave it a try.
Code:
For i = 1 to 9999
i = lstsFiles.SelCount
lstsFiles.RemoveItem (i)
Next
This didn't work. It gave me an error on lstsFiles.RemoveItem (i). I assume I have it wrong. I removed that line of code, ran it and it froze VB. Now I've gotta restart my program.

Removing Listbox Selected Item
How do I remove a user selected item in a listbox. Right now I have....
Code:
Private Sub Command3_Click()
lbo(RemoveItem) = lbo(SelectedItem)
End Sub
Where "lbo" is the name of the listbox. But that just yields a command button that does nothing at all.
I have anoter selected item that works similar (which works), where it gets the selected item in the listbox and sends it to the web browser
Code:
Private Sub Command1_Click()
Denlou.WebBrowser1.Navigate lbo(SelectedItem)
Unload favorites
End Sub
And I can't remove the equals sign because it returns "Expected: End of Statement"
Anyone know what to do?
Deleting A Selected Item From A Listbox
Hi there,
I`ve just joined this forum. I was wondering if anyone could help me?
I`ve made a listbox, populated with data from a table in access, with the column heading test.
I want to be able to select an item from the listbox, click on a button and then delete the item from the listbox and database. I have managed to do this, however the item deleted from the database is the first item and not the selected.
Any ideas?

vConnection.Open
vRecordSetTest.Open "TableTest", vConnection, adOpenKeyset, adLockOptimistic

Telling Which Item Is Selected In A Listbox.

edit- believe I figured it out, list1.selected(0)? And how can I put that in a select case? I don't know what I'd put instead of 0 for select case list1.selected(?)
Easy - Tell If Last Item In Listbox Is Selected.
What is a quick and simple way I can tell if the last item in a listbox is selected ? There is no multi-select enabled in the list either. I am doing it using listcount, and index but I get the feeling I am making it way more complicated then it needs to be. If you have an answer could you throw it in an if statement so that it will put up a msg box saying either "Last item selected", or "Last item not selected". ~Many Thank, Bryan J. Casler
Checking To See If Item In A ListBox Is Selected

This won't work, but if I put a number in place of x, it will work. Whats that all about?
Color Of Selected Item In Listbox...
Hello
quick question... is there an API or something to change the color of the highlighting when a record in a listbox is selected? by default it's an ugly blue, and that really doesn't suit my program's tastes ... maybe there is no way, but it would be nice.... thanks for the help!
Listbox Selected Item - Wierd Or Just Me ?
Hi guys,
This has been doing my head in all afternoon. I have a listbox on my form which reads it's data from an Access DB. I also have a normal textbox on my form.
If you select an item in the listbox it becomes highlighted, no problems so far. But, if you then click on the textbox the item un-selects itself. I cannot understand why. I have tried as a test, putting another listbox on the form and filled it's contents at design-time with numbers 1,2,3 etc,,. When this is run you can select an item in the test listbox, click on the textbox and it is still selected.
Any ideas why the first listbox keeps unselecting itself? Is it because the data in it is read from a DB ?
Cheers

How To Scroll A Listbox To Display Selected Item
My problem is as follows:
I have a listbox and my program selects a certain item based on coded algorithms. The listbox contains many more items than can be displayed at one time, so I have to use the scroll bar to search through the content of the listbox.
When my program selects an item in a listbox that is not currently in the view frame, I have to find the item by manually scrolling up or down until I can see it.
I would like my listbox to scroll automatically so that the selected item is in view.
I have not found a way to find out which items are displayed, or even to programmatically make the list scroll.
Any suggestion?
Thanks in advance

Send Selected Listbox Item To Textbox

If Checkbox Checked And Item Not Selected From ListBox BUT...
I have a checkbox and a combobox working together where if the checkbox (commute) is checked but nothing is selected from the list (car, bus, carpool, ferry, etc.) I have a code like this:
If chkCommute.Value And cboCommute.ListIndex = -1 Then 'checked but nothing selected in listbox
MsgBox "You must select a mode of transportation or enter another mode", , "Missing Info"'select a mode since you checked the box
cboCommute.SetFocus
Exit Sub
End if
And it works fine but I want it to go the opposite way - if a mode of transportation is selected but the checkbox not checked THEN...whatever. This info goes to an array that gets printed out. If I select a mode of transportation but don't check the checkbox and press enter the mode of transportation won't show up on the list. What would be a good way to make it come out? Anyone up for this? Thanks.
Frames That Would Follow The Selected Item In A ListBox
Hi there,
I have a ListBox with > 100 items, at the same time I have a Frame which has multible CheckBoxes. The Q is:
How can I make the frame move up/down with whichever is selected from the listbox ??
I have this code:
Code:
Private Sub Form_Load()
Frame1.Left = List1.Left + List1.Width
Frame1.Top = List1.Top - 180
End sub
Private Sub List1_Click()
Frame1.Top = List1.ListIndex * 300
End Sub
The 2 problems i'm having are:
- The Listindex When it's (0) ??
- When selecting item > 20 , the Frame would be Hidden !?
Thanx for any help.
Scroll Selected Item To Top In ListBox Control
I have a multiple select list box control on an aspx page controlled by VB code. I only have enough real estate to show 5 items in the list at any one time, therefore, the list box contains more items than will show at any one time. When an items is selected, the OnSelectedIndexChanged event is fired which gathers the selected items for later processing and the aspx is refreshed. This all works fine with the following problem, the refresh of the aspx always shows the very top portion of the list in the list box control regardless of which items are selected. How do I force it to automatically scroll down to the first selected item in the list if this item is not in the topmost portion of the list? In PowerBuilder, I would just do a ScrollToTop and supply it with the index of the item I wanted it to scroll to. I cannot find any way to do that with VB. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for your help.

How To Use Value Of Selected Item In Access 2000 Form Listbox
I have a listbox on a form in Access 2000. Using VBA, I run a search of files within a certain directory, and then display the results in the listbox. The items are added using the "Row Source" value in the listbox.

Item Selected In Listbox Determines Variable To Fill
I know I'm missing something simple because I've written 1st grade code my procedure is too large to compile. I have an array of 7 list boxes. Each list box contains 80 numbers which correspond to a competitor. When the competitor is selected in the list box I need to add the value in the corresponding text box to their accumulated score. (See below a small sample)
Since I have done this 80 times for each listbox the code is too large to compile. What am I missing to shorten it?
