I have a listbox and two buttons. Each of my button is labeled UP and DOWN. When I press UP, the current item in my listbox will be moved one level (or index) up and when I press DOWN button the current item goes one level down. I have been trying to manipulate the selectedindex property but it isn't working.
View 11 RepliesI click on items in my listbox and then hit a submit button, but when istep through my button_clicked code it doesn't detect any selectedindex. All controls are in the same form and there are no panels. Why can't I detect what items were clicked on in the listbox?
View 2 RepliesI have a listbox that contains numbers that vary from 0 to 99. My problem is when the number in the listbox is 0, listbox1.selectedindex will not return a value. So I cannot use removeat(x) which works for all other numbers. Can anyone give me an idea on how to do

I have a form with a dropdownbox two listboxes and two buttons on it. I removed a "select" button as I just used the DropDownList1_SelectedIndexChanged, but the event would not fire until I used the suggestion from:Why DropDownList.SelectedIndexChanged event does not fire?
It involved changing the AutoPostBack='true' and EnableViewState="true" properties
So now the DropDownList works but with the two listboxes, the SelectedIndex stays as -1 and does not change even when selected.

I think it has something to do with post backs, page_load or the selectedindex changed event of the listbox, it worked perfectly before I made the modifications.
I need to make events based on which index is selected in the listbox. I was wondering if there was an inbuilt function of if I need to use If conditions.
vb.net Private Sub ListBox1_SelectedIndexChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, _
ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles ListBox1.SelectedIndexChanged
That code will run when the selected index is changed regardless of which index. But I need each index/row to run a different event. I know I can use If conditions to get what I want, but I expect it'd be a lot more efficient with an inbuilt method.
I have a listbox of the 50 states. I have one textbox and as I enter the first few letters of the name I'm supposed to use the SelectedIndex property of the listbox to display the appropriate name. I am not very good at programming at all. Is this a quick and easy thing to do and if so how is it done?
View 5 RepliesIt appears that I cannot assign the selectedindex for a databound listbox if it has no parent, but I can do so if I have populated the list "manually" from the same datatable. In my code example, the "if" line toggles between loading a list via data binding and loading a list "manually" (both use the same data table). In each case I attempt to set the selected index afterwards. With manual loading, the selected index is set; with data binding, an error is thrown (which can be avoided by assigning the listbox a parent, but the "manual" equivalent doesn't need this). Is this a bug?

I have several list boxes on a form, the items collection is filled at design time and the selectedIndex is changed at run time. when I change the SelectedIndex the backcolor of the control changes. I don't want this to happen.
View 1 RepliesFirst of all, I'm a somewhat-experienced VB3 Developer, and I'm trying to convert a VB3 app to VB.NET.I got the programming guide (http:url....) by searching the web.The problem I'm having is the syntax for .NET is way different than VB3, and that's OK, but finding the correct syntax is very difficult.I'm trying to eliminate duplicates in a ListBox:
When I access the Programing guide, I see that:
ListBox.SelectedIndex Property
Gets or sets the zero-based index of the currently selected item in a ListBox.I also have Murach's and Stephen's manuals, and they say the same thing.Visual Studio converted The old .ListIndex to a VB6 Function:
If VB6.GetItemString(PlayList_ListBox, I) = VB6.GetItemString(PlayList_ListBox, I + 1) Then
This is Try #1. It generates: VB6 is not declared. It may be inaccessible due to its protection level.Then I read that VB6 is only for converting old code.So then I tried SelectedIndex:

Protected Sub btnAdd_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnAdd.Click

Updates are happening on the load of a dropdownbox This has something to do with autopostbacks and the page load I think, can someone please help When I click the add button even if I have selected an item in the listbox, it will always return an error message.

View 6 RepliesI have a ComboBox which content might change. The issue is when the content is changed, 1) i lose the previous selectedIndex, and 2) SelectedIndex is set to -1. I would like an MVVM solution, not some solution involving code-behind. I can have the SelectedIndex set to 0 on content change, but -1 is not a valid value for my model.
What i did as a 'trick' was to have the setter of the property bound to SelectedIndex to set the value to 0 when the value is set to -1. So now i don't have incorrect value in my model. But the ComboBox does not display the "0"th item, rather an empty box.
What could i do to have my ComboBox display the first item (index 0) when its content changes ?

I'm making a small program in VB.NET. I have a listBox and a button. I'd like to be able to press the button and have the selected listBox item change it's foreColor to green. I've tried many ways of doing this, ranging from overriding the draw method to using a listView (listBox is much better for what I'm doing, please don't recommend that I use a listView, I've already tried it.)At first I thought this would be simple, but it's the exact opposite and I'm very frustrated that such a simple task should be so difficult. I don't want to use any third-party controls, as I'd have to completely re-write my application.
