ListBox doesn't change focus with form navigation

[Joshua Ammann]

How do you change what row is highlighted in a listbox (so that it
highlights the current record you are viewing in the form) when you
use the built-in navagation buttons (or any method other than the
listbox itself) to move between records in a form?

I have a data entry form (single form) with a list box that moves
the form to whatever record you click on in the list box. You can also
change the current record by the navagation buttons, and I want to
keep that feature available. (Both the list box row source and form
record source are set with the form OnOpen event to the forms
OpenArgs, chosen in a combo box on another form.)

When I change the current record by the navagation buttons, the
listbox still highlights the last record selected, not the current
one. This could lead to someone not realizing which record they are on
and editing or deleting the wrong record.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

In the Current event of the form set the value of the ListBox to agree with
the record.

Well, that was so simple I feel pretty silly now for asking.
Thanks for answering, Rick!
