Remove Unselected Items from listbox

[esperanto234]

Hi,
I need a code to remove all the items that are unselected from a listbox.
I really need this!!
Thanks!!

You will need to loop through the list box from listcount - 1 to 0 step -1 and check the selected property and if not selected use the remove method.



Good Luck

Thank you very much, I already did it.

In case someone wants to know, the answer is the following:

If NOM <> "" Then
Dim ix As Integer
Dim bFound As Boolean

For ix = 0 To ctlCHN.ListCoun t - 1
If ctlCHN.List(ix) = NOM.Text Then
bFound = True
Exit For
End If
Next

If bFound = False Then
ctlCHN.AddItem NOM.Text
End If
End If

Dear esparanto234 I think the question asked by u & code posted by u are not same. In ur code actually u are checking whether textbox entry already exists in the listbox or not, if not then it is added to the listbox. Deletion is no where done in ur code. To delete the unselected items, u need to loop through index=0 to index=Listcount-1 and check if a particular index item is selected or not. If it not selected then delete it (but adjust loop accordingly as now listbox has 1 item less than previous). So through loop u can delete unselected item(s).
