Hello All,

I am pulling my hair out on the listbox . Very common control.

I am trying to get the values of multi select.

I guess it should go like this:

for i=0 to Listbox1.Items.Count-1
begin
if listbox1.Selected then
value:= listbox1.Items.text;
end;

Well that is a no-go on the mac i am using.
Any advise ?

Cheers
Peter

oops .. should have put the glasses on ..

for i:=0 to Listbox1.Items.Count-1 do
begin
if listbox1.Selected then
access_strg:= listbox1.Items.text;
end;

It does not accept .text (illegal qualifier error)

ok got it ..
for i:=0 to Listbox1.Items.Count-1 do
begin
if listbox1.Selected then
begin
access_strg:= listbox1.Items;
showmessage( access_strg);

end;
end;

Use like access_strg:= listbox1.Items; instead of access_strg:= listbox1.Items.text;

Would be nice to find somewhere the documentation ..
Anyways thanks for providing this board here. It is very helpful and thanks for creating codetyphon

One quick question ..
Is there a way to have a combobox with multiple selections ?
or
Is there a way to make a listbox like a combobox (the drop down feature) ?

Thanks
Peter
