Anyone knows if there is some kind of property or function that will
return the last selected/deselected item/index in a multiselect
ListBox? SelectedIndex will point to first index in the
SelectedIndices collection, so this is a dead end. My solution so far
is to override the mouse click and key pressed events. However, since
arrow up/down seems to keep a record of the item that currently has
focus somehow, I would believe this information is stored somewhere.
Any help is appreciated since I can't seem to figure this out without
tending to overkill solutions.

A quick thought -- if we can query the control to get the value of the
number of items in the ListBox we can get the value of the last item
in its collection. That should be in the documentation.

Sure, but a _collection_ doesn't support that property. Items.Count
gets the number of items. I've looked high and low for an answer to
this question, and it doesn't seem to be answered anywhere. And "last
item" can be a bit obscure. There is a subcollection called
SelectedItems/Indices, but the item with focus does not necessarily
have to be in this collection. For example one can select a range of
items, then deselect one of them. The deselected one will have focus,
but won't be selected.
This is a tough nut!

Hi
I have a listbox in a form which has been set on multiselect simple. If
I select some of the items on the list on day1, save and exit, and
return on day2, the items I selected on day1 do not remain highlighted.
How do I ensure that when I return to the form on day2, that the items I
selected on day1 are still highlighted?
Thanks,
Silvia

Hi,
I have a windows form with a listbox control. My code all works correctly
when deleting an item from the listbox except the last item. I get the
following message when trying to delete the last item:-
Specified argument was out of the range of valid values. Parameter name:
'64' is not a valid value for 'Value'.
The 64 reduces depending on how many listbox items are displayed.

My code works perfectly 100% when adding items to my ArrayList and updating the listbox.
Works perfectly when deleting an item in the ArrayList when it is not the last entry but if it is
the last entry and you select another index it goes boom!!!.
Funny thing is the SelectedIndex Changed routine fires off perfectly and then crash after the return
from this code.
Now looking around the news groups it appears to be a bug in the .net...

Hi,
I have a listbox (in a user control) which has items add/removed via
javascript (i.e. an "add item" link which uses a popup selection screen to
add items and a "remove item" link which deletes any selected row(s)).
There is a strange problem that when I inspect the list of items during a
postback the list appears to be empty (even though I added items). I noticed
that when I multiselect one or more items, only those selected items...

I've tried googling for the answer to this problem, without any luck.
I'm sure the truth must be out there somewhere!
I have a multiselect listbox populated with many items (set by the
RowSource property). In my code I cause a number of these to be
selected - but if the first selected item is not within the currently
visible range then there is no change to the display. This gives the
impression that nothing has happened.

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
