Hi All,

How to select the values in Listbox dynamically ?

my code is like :

Dim temp As String = "Mysore , Bangalore , Mandya ,"
Dim temporary As String() = temp.Split(","c)
Dim length As Integer = temporary.Count()

For I As Integer = 0 To length - 1
MessageBox.Show(temporary(I))
ListBox1.Items(temporary(I)).Selected = True // i am getting error here
Next

Reagrds,
Harish

Hi Harish,
You might get the following error


There are two errors in your code:
Dim temp As String = "Mysore , Bangalore , Mandya , "
1) you have placed extra comma in the string array and you have check beyond the array limit.
So I corrected it by removing comma at the end
2) ListBox1.Items(temporary(I))
Items() expects the integer value.. But you are passing array string instead of index value...

refer the following code...
        Dim temp As String = "Mysore , Bangalore , Mandya"
Dim temporary As String() = temp.Split(","c)
Dim length As Integer = temporary.Count()

For I As Integer = 0 To length - 1
'MessageBox.Show(temporary(I))
ListBox1.Items(I).Selected = True 'i am getting error here
Next


NOTE:
make sure that you have list box items added before making selection...
Before Selection of item value in listbox you must have items values in the ListBox
