Listbox Name Showing Up As First Item In Listbox?
For some reason the listbox I've just added to my form shows the name of the listbox in itself at design time. At run-time, the name of the listbox shows up as the first item in the list.
I've tried looking for a CAPTION or TEXT property but neither seem to be present. Any ideas as to how to fix this?

Listbox Only Showing One Item
Hey guys.
Sb must have had this problem before.
I have a filter thru comma sep. values that adds items to the listbox only if they meet certain criteria
To make certain that it was not an error in the filter, I used a label whose captions shows the number of results found (intNumRecords). Problem is only one line is showing in the list box.
Here is my code (roughly):
For intNum = 0 to intNumRecords 'the # of records found
List1.AddItem strLine(intNum),intNum
Next intNum
Looks simple enough but when I run it, only the first one shows (Record #0). Why doesn't this work?
Any ideas?

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?
Showing The Latest Item Added To A ListBox
Hi,
I have a listbox to which I'm adding new items. The listbox is high enough to show 6 items without having to use the scroll bar.
When the listbox gets more than 6 items, I want it to scroll automatically to the bottom of the list to show the latest items without having user to use the scroll bar.
How do I do this?
Thanks.
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!

Listbox: How To Know Last Added Item's Index, When The Listbox Is Sorted?
When sorted property of a listbox is set to True, each new item added won't be at the end of the list, it will be automatically placed in the correct index, according to text order, is there a way to know which is the index of that item (last item added)? Looping to find it would be horrendous, I just need the index to mark that item selected.

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

Showing Text In Listbox And More...
I have a .txt file that looks like this:
nvm_:_nevermind
np_:_no problem
brb_:_be right back
and so on...Anyways, I have a listbox that I want everything to the left of "_:_" to show up in, so the listbox would have data like this:
nvm
np
brb
And I have two textboxes. When you click on "np" in this case, I want text1.text to have np, and text2.text to show whats beside "_:_". So in text2.text it would have the text: no problem. If I edit the text in either text box, and click a command button (command1) I need it to save the changes in the .txt file that it gets the data from, so if I edited text1.text to "np1" and text2.text to "noproblem1", the text file would look like this:
nvm_:_nevermind
np1_:_noproblem1
brb_:_be right back
Anyways, how can I do this?

ListBox - Showing Bottom Of List
I am using a list box to show files I am processing one at a time.
This list is long so that the list box ends up having a scroll bar.
Every time a new line gets added to the end of the list box entries, the scroll bar ends back up at the top of the list.
How do I add a line and have the box display the bottom of the list so i don't keep having to rescroll down to the bottom while it's off processing a file.
Listbox Or Listview Showing Count?
IS it possible to get the count of items that are showing in a listbox or listview? I know that " list1.listcount " gets the count of all items in the list.
So for example if you have a list containing 100 items and you can see lets say the first ten items without scrolling. Is there a way to show that count of ten in a label or text box? Or is it not possible?
ListBox With One Fixed Column Showing Index
Hi,
I want to have a listbox with one fixed column as the ordered index and another column for user-input.
For example, below is a 2-column listbox.
1 red
2 blue
3 brown
Users will specify the number of rows and the listbox should put the index in the first column and leave the second column for users to input.
How do I create such a multi-column listbox?
Thank you...
Showing Previously Selected Items In A Listbox
I am using listboxes to allow for multiple selection of items per user. On the form, a user is selected using a combo box, and then in a listbox that is populated from a query I can select items associated with that user and I then use code to copy those items into another list box showing only the selections made. I store in a table the comma delimited information I used to populate the second listbox.
My question is, when I call that user back up, I would like the first list box with all the items to choose from to show what was selected for that user previously.
(Example: A listbox pulls the days of the week from a query. I select John Doe as a user and then in the listbox I select Tueday & Friday. In a table, I store in John Doe's record "Tuesday, Friday" The next time I pull up John Doe on that form, I want the listbox to still show all the days of the week, but to have Tusday and Friday already show as selected.)
Multi-select Listbox Not Showing Last Value In List
Hey everybody,
I'm not sure if this is the correct forum to post this, but I'm having a minor issue with a multi-select listbox.
I have a range of 29 values that this listbox "pulls" from. The listfillrange property is equal to A2:A29.
However, the very last value does not show up or is unreachable. I cant scroll down to it.
Is there a property within the listbox that I can use to be able to reach this last value?
Thanks for any help I can get
Showing Data From ADODB.Recordset In A Listbox
New to programming. I need to show data from an ADODB.Recordset saved in a .txt file in a listbox. The program works fine (well almost) but I cannot link the data to show in a listbox. There are 4 fields of data, I need just one to show in my listbox (name). Here's a sample of the code i had tried but didnt work
Set objDataSource = New ContactDataSource
Set colBind = New BindingCollection
Set colBind.DataSource = objDataSource
colBind.Add lstName, "Text", "addName"
When I replace the listBox control with a textBox (for experiment sake), the "Text", "addName" shows up, so I know the code writes and reads from the .txt source properly. I just need to "connect" the listBox with the data.
Please pardon my lack of knowlege in VB nomenclature and explanations, It is hard when your at the bottom lookin up.
Also....when I try to add data to my recordset I need to hit my cmdAddData button once before I can fill the text areas to add to my recordset. When I do this it adds blank " " " " " " " " in my data (don't want that). Any suggestions?
Thanks for any input. If I am not clear...I apologize.

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?

Move ListBox Item Up Or Down
Just wanted to make a small contribution to the forum. I looked around for this but didn't find anything really to my liking, so here's my version...
Code:
''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
'Move Selected listbox item up or down
''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
Option Explicit
const UP as integer = -1
const DOWN as integer = 1
Private Sub btnUp_Click()
If Me.lstDisplayCols.ListCount > 1 Then
Call MoveListItem(UP, Me.lstDisplayCols)
End If
End Sub
Private Sub btnDown_Click()
If Me.lstDisplayCols.ListCount > 1 Then
Call MoveListItem(DOWN, Me.lstDisplayCols)
End If
End Sub
Private Sub MoveListItem(ByVal intDirection As Integer, _
ByRef lstListBox As ListBox)
Dim intNewPosition As Integer
Dim strTemp As String
intNewPosition = lstListBox.ListIndex + intDirection
strTemp = lstListBox.List(intNewPosition)
If intNewPosition > -1 _
And intNewPosition < lstListBox.ListCount Then
'Swap listbox items
lstListBox.List(intNewPosition) = lstListBox.Text
lstListBox.List(intNewPosition - intDirection) = strTemp
lstListBox.Selected(intNewPosition) = True
End If
End Sub
the lstDisplayCols listbox is a list of selected columns to be displayed for a search result list. Just put the name of your list box there...
How To Get The Text Of Item In A Listbox?
I am using a test tool that uses VBA as its back end. When I record the action the tool itself only recongnizes the NAME of the item selected in the list...in most cases this is best.
However, I really need it to select by text, but this does not seem to work. So I want to write a little VBA that will extract the text of the displayed selection in the listbox after my test tool plays back the selection.
Example:
the text displayed is "English"
the name of this item is "en-US"
I want:
textDisplayed = text.listbox, which will mean textDisplayed = "English"
I was wondering what the syntax for this is? rather new to VB.
Thanks in advance

Remove Item From Listbox
In the list box, I want to remove selected items and retain the other items in the same positions in which they existed before removal.
For example, consider a listbox having 10 items. Suppose I remove the 7th item, 8th, 9th & 10th items should remain in the same position. 8th to 10th items should not move up in the list. 7th item will not have any values.
How can this be done?

Ok, guys, i need help. I have one listbox, populated with irc #channels, and i want bot to come and enter in each channel in listbox, then to say some text (i use this for my irc server, for annoucments), and part that channel after saying a message.
I got how to do that, but i have a problem. It comes to "exces flood" and i am being disconected from server.
How can i eventually pause some events? U know, it joins to channel, than says a message, parts that channel, waits for a couple a seconds (for exam. 3 seconds) than joins other channel in list and so on??
Code:
On Error Resume Next
Dim i As Integer
For i = List1.ListCount - 1 To 0 Step -1
Winsock1.SendData "JOIN " + List1.list(i) + vbCrLf
Wait 5000 (its says to wait 5 seconds, than to do next)

Wait 5000 (its says to wait 5 seconds, than to do next)

Formating A Listbox Item
I have created a listbox in VB. It lists all of the sheets in my current workbook. When I click on the name of one of the sheets, it switches to that sheet. It works really nicely. I am trying to figure out a way, when the listbox comes up, to BOLD the name of the active sheet.
I am not sure it is possible to format the text for a particular line in the listbox.
Listbox.item(0)=NADA
I know this has to be very simple, but I'm stumped. I've searched the forum using "blank listbox item", "empty item listbox", "fill listbox" and could not find my answer.
I am using the code below to populate a listbox, the problem is that the first item in listbox is always empty. If I check the length of the first record it comes out to 0 so I thought that telling it not to add items with a length of less than 1 would handle that, but it didn't.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Listbox Item Movement
With a listbox, I need to check the first item's text but I'm not sure how to go about this...
I want to say something like...

End If
Obviously, this doesn't work, I just need it to check the text in the first index of the list...
THANKS!
