Multiple Select Listbox - Help

Hi. I am new to C#, and I am having trouble getting the multiple
selection of listbox to work. I have an asp.net web form, and I need
two listboxes which are filled with an access table. I have to be
able to select multiple items, and fill a datagrid with the results.
I can fill 2 listboxes and a datagrid, but not with multiple
selections. So far, I have no code behind, I have completed it with
just using the characteristics of the controls and manipulating the
query statements.

Does someone have a generic code-behind for this that I can relate to
my situation? I realize I have to iterate through the selections, but
I don't understand how. If you would like to see my page, just ask
and I will post it.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

Marisa,

Is the SelectionMode property of the ListBox set to
ListSelectionMo de.Multiple?

Hi, I can't figure out how to set multiple items in a ListBox to selected when the listbox is in a User Control. When the ListBox is set in directly into a form I can use the following: listbox.SelectionMode = SelectionMode.MultiExtended; listbox.SelectedIndex = 1; listbox.SelectedIndex = 2;

I have two listboxes, the first of which is an autopostback=true that allows multiple row selection. When I select multiple values (by holding down CTL) in the first one, it should query the second one. I seem unable to do this as it only sends back the first item I select whether I have the CTL key down or not. Upon the return trip, I can select another one, but it still only sends value for the last one I selected. -- MY LISTBOX --...
