Multicolumn listbox add item

25
Hello!

I have two textboxes and a multicolumn listbox on the form. User enters first name in one textbox and last name in the other. After "submit" button is clicked I want first and last name to be displayed in the listbox (first name in column 0 and last name in column 1). Can anyone help me with what list function I should use?
I've tried using listbox.additem function passing array as parameter, but that does not work.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

AddItem only works if the listbox is set to value list. And you don't pass it an array, you pass it a string.

If it's a table/query, then you can use a .Requery to refresh it.

i have it set to "value list" and the reason i was trying to pass an array is because its a multicolumn listbox.
I used list1.additem string1 on listboxes with a single column, but I cant figure out how to apply it to populate values in different columns

Even with a multicolumn listbox you pass it a string.
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. "Value1;Value2;Value3"
