unselecting a listbox

[jesse07]

I have 6 seperate listbox and I want the user to select 1 value from 1 of the 6 boxes. The problem is after the user clicks the listbox1 then listbox2, listbox1 still says highlighted. I want to "unclick" or deselct the line from listbox1 when the user selects listbox2.

Any suggestions?

try something along the lines of 'listbox1.selec teditem = false' or 'listbox1.selec teditem = -1' put this code on the listbox2 changed event (ie double click list box 2)

It worked on my version at work. I will try it when I get home. I swear I did this last night but my eyes & brain were a little strained at that point.

Thanks

Just from memory, doesn't the listbox have a MultiSelect property? I imagine this might affect the behaviour, so perhaps that was set differently.

Yes killer I believe you are correct... again ;)

Anyways how about using combo box instead? Then you can say cbobox1.selecte ditem = -1

Thanks

cbobox1.selecte ditem = -1

It should be :
cbobox1.ListInd ex = -1

[jamesd0142]

it shud be :
cbobox1.ListInd ex = -1

Much appriciated...

i find this works...
ComboBox1.Selec tedIndex = -1

thank you ;)
