SelectedIndex : Gets Or Sets The Zero-based Index Of The Currently Selected Item In A ListBox?

Jun 7, 2012

First 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:

Get Selected Item Index Or A Sorted & Grouped List Relative To Item Source?

Feb 12, 2011

I'm having some difficulty with a sorted & grouped listbox in WPF vb.net 3.5 that has an items source bound to an ObservableCollection.

What I want to be able to do is to retrieve a piece of data from the ObservableCollection items source depending on what item in the listbox the user has selected.I've almost got it working but because the listbox is sorted it does not match the index of the items source.

[code]...

As I previously mentioned, because the lstBox is sorted and also grouped the index's don't match up.Does anyone know how I can get the correct information I want from the List Source depending on the selected item in the list box?

Getting The Index Number Of Selected ComboBox Item?

Feb 6, 2010

I have a combo box setup with 4 items, with indexes ranging from 0 to 3.

Later in my code, I need to do a certain event depending on what is selected. To do this I thought about comparing what the index of the selected combo box item is, because integer comparison is faster than strings, right?

how I can grab the index of the selected value?

Populating ComboBox Based On Selected Item In First One

Jan 10, 2012

I want to populate the combobox based on the selected item in the first combobox. The following code is written in vb.net 2008

Public Class Form1 Sub fillcombo()
strsql = "select * from device"
Dim cmd As New OleDb.OleDbCommand
cmd.CommandText = strsql
cmd.Connection = con
[Code] .....

For this code I am able to populate the first combobox and when I select the specific item in combobox then the second combobox shows only the first element of that item.

In MS access 2007 I have created 2 tables:
1) Contains the device ex:computer
2) Contains the device and its parts ex: cpu, monitor so here the device has duplicate values
Table names are device and parts.

Get Listbox Text Using Index Of Its Item?

Aug 19, 2010

In simple terms, I want to compare the value of a databound listbox display member with another string. However; I need to convert the listbox databound items to an array first as I may have to do 1,000's of comparisons on this.

I have a databound listbox from a sql server table that populates fine. I'm trying to retrieve the display value of a listbox item without selecting the item. My goal is to compare items in listbox1 with items in listbox2 and if item is in listbox1 matches an item I want to load into Listbox2, then I do not add the item to Listbox2. Listbox 2 is not databound but contents I'm loading come from a datatable.

So, I iterate through the items in listbox2's datatable but as I'm adding the items from the datatable to the listbox2, I check if the item exists in listbox1. The data that is being compared is the Displaymember of Listbox1 and a string value I want to manually load into listbox2.[code]....

I'm having a small hiccup in the following code. Basically what I have going on is a play button that will play the selected item in the listbox and once the button is clicked then the next item in the list is highlighted and waiting. This works exactly like I want it but the only issue is when it gets to the last item in the list it want play it.

If (PlaylistBox1.SelectedIndex + 1) <> PlaylistBox1.Items.Count Then

.net - Listbox.selected Index Change Variable Assignment?

Apr 3, 2011

What is the correct way of assigning the selected index's value from a listbox to a variable? The user selects an item in a listbox and then the output changes depending on their selection.

I use:variablename = listbox.text

in the listBox_SelectedIndexChanged event and this works.

When I use the button_click event I use:

variablename = listbox.selectedindex

But this does not work in the listbox_selectedindexchanged event.you let me know if it is okay to use it like I did above or if I will run into problems and why you cannot use the selectedindex method.

Should Changing The Parent Of A Listbox Change The Selected Index

Mar 22, 2012

You wouldn't think so, but it does when the listbox is bound to a datasource (as far as I can see).

I've reduced the behaviour to the code below. 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 set the selected index afterwards, and then change the parent form. With manual loading, the selected index is retained, with binding it is lost. I cannot see how this makes any sense - I don't see why changing the host form should alter any property of the list. Is this a bug?

Public Class Form1
Sub main() Handles Me.Load
Dim ListControl1 As ListBox = New ListBox
