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 ?

The problem is getting those same workstations highlighted/selected when the user recalls that record from the database, in the event that there are addtions or changes. Here is the relevant code for the reload[code]...

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.

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??

View 8 RepliesI 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?
