Opening Text Files When Listbox Item Is Selected
Aug 4, 2009
a dialogue box to have the user open a file they wish. I'm trying to open a specific file when a listbox item is selected and I have that down but I'm running into the problem of needing to have "" in the display which is impossible from what I can tell in the code. I just need to know what goes in the quotes which will open the file. Also lets say the text file was 'supportdoc1.rtf' and was located in a folder inside of the program folder called 'SupportDocuments' would the path be "SupportDocumentssupportdoc1.rtf" [Code]

How to display text in a rich text box when an item is selected in a listbox. Here's a snippet of my
Private Sub radGunsNRoses_CheckedChanged(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles radGunsNRoses.Click
'Declares songs into variables
Dim strSong1 As String = "1. Sweet Child O' Mine"
Dim strSong2 As String = "2. Novemeber Rain"
Dim strSong3 As Integer = "3. Welcome to the Jungle"
'Band Picture
[Code] .....
What I really want is that when radGunsNRoses is checked, the listbox displays the songs and when one is clicked, it shows the song's lyrics in the ritfSongs. Same thing goes for radACDC but the songs are different and the lyrics.

I have a form with a list box and a button. The list box is filled with text files from a folder. When you click the button whatever file is selected in the list box is then opened and each line of that file is added as an item in a list box on another form.I'm not sure what to code for if something in the first list box is not selected.

My code follows. I have six items (indices 0-6) and I'm trying to check if one has been selected or not. If not, then messagebox yells at you to select one. If it does, it tells you what you have selected. I'm having a horrible brain fart and contemplated coming here for about 45 minutes as I couldn't get it.
If ListBox1.SelectedItem.ToString <> "" Then
MessageBox.Show("You selected " + ListBox1.SelectedItem.ToString)
Else
MessageBox.Show("Please select an item.")
End If

In .NET there doesn't seem to be a property to find the item just selected in a multi-select listbox; SelectedIndex always shows the first selected item. From memory VB6 had the ListIndex property that changed accordingly... Why remove a useful property ?

What im trying to do is display my details in a listbox then the one that is selected frm the listbox is displayed in the textboxes and when delete button is clicked it is flagged at deleted??? This is what should happen!!:@

So, I need to be able to edit an item that has been selected in a listbox. I need to do so with a button click event. Theoretically, I know how to do this, because I know how to add an item, and how to remove one, and how to insert an item at a specific location.
'Dim strinput As String
'Dim Item As Object
'Dim index As Integer = lstList.Items.IndexOf(item)
'strinput = InputBox("Edit This Item")
'lstList.Items.RemoveAt(lstList.SelectedItem)
'lstList.Items.Insert(index, strinput)
however, this does not work at all. what am I doing wrong??

I am trying to use a listbox to hold categories from one table in a database and by clicking on the categories in the listbox it will display data from another table in the database that is linked to those categories. One table has a field called ID and the other has categoryID and categoryID is linked to ID so it displays the numbers from ID.I am using this:
daSamples.SelectCommand.CommandText = "SELECT * FROM tblSamples WHERE tblSamples.categoryid =" & (lstCategory.SelectedIndex + 1)
daSamples.Fill(dsSamples, "tblSamples")
Currently, however with this if you delete a category from the table with ID in it then it changes the values of the selectedindex in the listbox which messes up the data that gets displayed. How can i change this so instead of using the selectedindex from the listbox, it takes the ID from the selectedindex?
