Moving Item From One Listbox To Another
Hey all

I am trying to move an item from one listbox to another. The first listbox has items where the RowSourceType = "Field List" and the second one is value list. This is my code:

Private Sub DisplayAllFields_DblClick(Cancel As Integer)

If ListOfFieldsSelected.RowSource = (List0.Value & "." & DisplayAllFields.Value) Then
MsgBox ("You cannot select a field more than once. Please select another field")
Else
ListOfFieldsSelected.AddItem (List0.Value & "." & DisplayAllFields.Value)
End If
End Sub

When I double click the same value in the first list again, it brings up the msgbox once but it doesn't do that once it has added another field to ListOfFieldsSelected. I would use the RemoveItem method so user can't click the field again but DisplayAllFields is set to Field List so it can't remove item unless set to "Value list". Any suggestions on this?

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks

If lstPlayList.ListCount - 1 = lstPlayList.ListIndex Then
Exit Sub
Else
tempStr = lstPlayList.List(List1.ListIndex)

Dragdrop Moving Wrong Item In Listbox(aborted Dragdrop Idea)
I am using dragdrop in a list box(checkbox style) to move items around but sometimes it picks up the item below the one I selected instead of the one I clicked on. ANy ideas? heres the code I'm using

Code:

Private Sub lstFields_MouseDown(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
If (Button And vbLeftButton) = vbLeftButton Then
nDragIndex = Y Me.TextHeight("Xyz")
If nDragIndex >= 0 And nDragIndex < lstFields.ListCount Then
blnDraging = True
End If
End If
End Sub

Private Sub lstFields_MouseUp(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
Dim nIndex As Integer
Dim sItem As String

If (Button And vbLeftButton) = vbLeftButton Then
If blnDraging = True Then
nIndex = Y Me.TextHeight("Xyz")
If nIndex > lstFields.ListCount - 1 Then
nIndex = lstFields.ListCount
ElseIf nIndex < 0 Then
nIndex = 0
End If
If nIndex <> nDragIndex Then
sItem = lstFields.List(nDragIndex)
lstFields.RemoveItem nDragIndex
lstFields.AddItem sItem, nIndex
End If
End If
blnDraging = False
End If
End Sub


This is my first post with code in it so I hope I did it right, sorry if I didn't.

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.

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

PopRecSet.MoveNext
Loop

Moving Listbox View
After picking an item in a Listbox, I want to return it to the top of the list. using listindex just selects an item, but doesn't return whats shown to that item. I want it to display item 0.
How do I accomplish this?
I had:

Code:
ListBox1.ListIndex = 0

but it just highlights the item, but does not show it.
i'm showing one item at a time, and scrolling to the picked item.

Listbox Moving Listindex
i have this code to select the next listindex and if its at the end start at the beggining again.

VB Code:
List1.ListIndex = (List1.ListIndex + 1) Mod List1.ListCount


my question is can anybody come up with a line like that but make it go backwards.
i know you can do if statements to check where the index is but i have been trying to figure this out and i just cant get it right.

thank you.

Moving ListBox To Typing Position.
Hey,

I have a question for you that seems to me as if it could be a hard one... I have not been able to find anything about it, mainly because I haven't got a clue as to where to look for...

I made some sort of AutoComplete feature in my program (in a RichTextBox), and it would be really nice if I could make it similar to Visual Basic's "Auto List Members" option (which is the listbox popping up with possible keywords when you type a ".")

I want a ListBox to become visible whenever the program is autocompleting a word, that lists all other possible keywords (because there are often multiple).

I want this ListBox to appear at the location of the I-beam (selection thingy).

How can I get it to move there? Is it possible to find the Top and Left location of the I-beam inside a RichTextBox somehow? I doubt it...
Can it be done otherwise?

Moving Listbox Items W/ Mouse
does anyone know how to shift listbox items around with the mouse? a good example would be winamp's playlist. the code i came up with works fine...if you move your mouse slowly. if you go fast, it'll pretty much mess up the order because the cursor jumps around when you move your mouse too quickly.


Dim HotItem1 As Integer

Private Sub List1_MouseMove(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
If Button = 1 Then
If HotItem1 <> List1.ListIndex Then
If HotItem1 > -1 Then
a = List1.List(HotItem1)
b = List1
List1.List(List1.ListIndex) = a
List1.List(HotItem1) = b
End If
HotItem1 = List1.ListIndex
List1_Click
End If
Else
HotItem1 = -1
End If

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

Listbox Item Selection

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?
