Mark the first item in my listbox when I load the form?

[Pirre001]

I always wanna mark the first item in my listbox when I start the form. How do I do that?

[swatty]

Private Sub Form_Load()
  List1.ListIndex = 0
End Sub

[axion_sa]

Private Sub Form_Load()
    If List1.ListCount > 0 Then
        List1.ListIndex = 0
    End If
End Sub

List1.Selected(0) = True

If I use List1.Selected(0) = True, the first item selected. But I still must click on the listbox to get the value to my code? Why?

...because I don't think it fires off any events...

Call the click event of the list after you set the selected item

List1_Click

[Wokawidget]

...or use Axion's or Swatty's code

which control are you using ??

Private Sub Form_Load()
   List1.AddItem "hoera"
   List1.Selected(0) = True
End Sub
 
Private Sub List1_Click()
  MsgBox "clicked"
End Sub

Worked for me without calling the click event.
