Question

I have a form with 10 listboxes on it. I also have a command button. How do I make it so that if I press the command button it will select the 3rd item of a listbox of my choosing?

Answer 1

You may do so by converting your 10 listboxes into a control array. If I remember correctly, you do so by specifying the same Name property and a unique, non-negative Index property for each one of the ListBox instances in your form.

Assuming you named all of your list boxes as ListBoxArr and set up the Index property so that the first listbox is 0, the second one is 1, etc. then you can write something like this

' Access the 6th list box and select the third item
' Remember, Index values are zero-based, so 0 is first item...
ListBoxArr(5).ListIndex = 2
