Item's Indes in multiselect listbox

[Sally]

In a simple multiselect listbox, what is the code to return an item's index when
it is selected?

Thanks!

Suggest looking up ListIndex in the Help files.

I am not sure I completely understand the question, but there are 3
properties that could be used depending upon what you want to accomplish:

Use the ListIndex property to figure out WHERE the selected item is:
Dim currentPosition As Integer
currentPosition = (lstIncSrch.Lis tIndex + 1)
Use the Selected property to determine IF the item is selected:
for x = 1 to listBoxName.Lis tCount - 1
if listBoxName.Sel ected(x) = False then
msgbox("Yeah, it's selected!!!)
end if
next x
Use the ItemData property to return the VALUE of the item at that location
selectedItem = lstIncSrch.Item Data(currentPos ition)
