select listbox

I have an edit page that contains a listbox. I want to select the items in it that were passed from the previous page, but have them at the top of the list box. is there a way to do that/

so for example:
on my main page I have in my grid

BMW, Mercedes, Lexus

when I click edit, I want
BMW, Mercedes, Lexus selected in my listbox (which I have) but at the top so I don't have to scroll looking for them.
Even though they may not be at the top when the list is bound, if they're selected I want them first.

Is there a way to do this?
