ListBox On Click Event

[buddydasari]

Hi all

I wrote a listbox onclick event.On a click i want to get the selected row details but the listbox.selecte d(i) always returns false ,it returns true only in
double click event.Are they any other events on which i could do this.I want to populate a textbox based on the row selected from the listbox.Its working as i want when i add the code in a double click event but it doesn't make much sense doing it on a double click event.

thanks

The standard method for doing this sort of thing uses the AfterUpdate event of the listbox (or combobox) not the Click or DoubleClick event.

This type of thing is normally done without using the Selected property at all, something like this.

Private Sub YourListBoxName_AfterUpdate()
     Me.TextBox1 = Me.YourListBoxName.Column(0)
     Me.TextBox2 = Me.YourListBoxName.Column(1)
     Me.TextBox3 = Me.YourListBoxName.Column(2)
End Sub

Note that the columns are Zero-based, so the first column (reading left-to-right) would be column(0), the second column(1) and so forth.

When you click on a row to select it the textboxes are filled in.

Glad you got it working. The Selected Property is intended to be used when the Listbox Multi-Select Property is set to either Simple or Extended. You use it to loop thru all rows to see which are selected. It's really not meant to be used in your type of application.
