ListBox1.Items.Add(aString.Replace(" ", vbCrLf))
aString is like this: Tom Gary Kevin Bob Jason and so on, just all in 1 line What i want to do it add them in a listbox as a list. Also the string could be 1 name, 2 names or 200 names.I tryed replacing the " " with vbCrLf but since its a listbox all it does is remove the " "?
I'm a beginner, so my explanation might be a bit dumb, but i hope you know what I mean. I have a listbox listing goods (CD's) with information Idnumber, artist, album, price etc.

View 1 RepliesI have a listbox that gets populated with files paths based on search terms provided by the user. I want the user to be able to select multiple items on the listbox, and then be able to export the files listed to another folder. See the attached image for what I'm talking about.
The problem I'm having is that I don't know how to take the items selected and turn them into a string array. Everything else I can figure out, but this one has me stumped.

I have a program where you have three entries, CD name, artist, price and it goes into a listbox and .txt file when closing. I have to have a message box if you enter the same CD name. I have a code to open the .txt file and compare strings but I need to change it to compare only the CD name and not all three entries. Is there a way to do my string compare against my listbox without opening the .txt file?? The program loads the listbox from the .txt file when opening. Private Sub btnAdd_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnAdd.Click' adds CD information to the list box

View 18 RepliesI am having problems with copying from one listbox to another and keeping the paths of the files in the listbox's. At the moment i have two listbox's, listbox1 shows the list of files without the directory paths showing. Listbox2 is used to add items from listbox1 which work ok but what i need is to be able to preserve the directory paths to each file. how to do this and have searched high and low for a solution without any luck.
I have worked out one way of doing it but i think there is a better way of doing it as the reverse does not seem to work. So basicly i want listbox1 to list the files without the paths and pass it on to listbox2 so that the files can be copied to temp directory as they are being add to listbox2.
Below is my

I have 2 listboxes on my form.Listbox 1 - populated with "available" field namesListbox 2 - populated with "selected" field names.There cannot be the same field name in both listboxes - it's either one of the other.The logic I was going to apply was to populate Listbox 1 with every field name ... and then as I populated Listbox with the field names which the user has already selected, remove the corresponding item from Listbox 1.

View 5 Repliesi wish to make something similar to a command-line kind of thing in which one can type a series of words and the program will run the string through a function that splits up the words uses the first word string to find which function needs to be run and makes the other word strings as parameters of the function to run. its kind of like a odd interpreter based scripting language however once this problem is addresed i have a seperate issue.
i then need to output to a new entry on a ListBox that would be named as a parameter of the first function that splits and such that i explained above.
however i do not know of what i can use to input the name of the listbox only then have that add an entry from within the function.
i wish to do it this way so as not to be tied down to the same naming conventions of the list box every time i use it.
in the end i would like to main function to do all of the above and be called simply like this: Comand2Function(inputstring, outputlistbox)

So im trying to do a simple system in my VB Express Edition 2008 and what it does is add some car models (example) to a list box and stores it in a .txt file for future use. But when the user clicks a delete button it should delete from both the listbox and the .txt. I have to use only the FileOpen(OpenMode.Append or OpenMode.Input/Output) functions.
