Fellow earthlings, my planet needs your help!

I have absolutely no idea why this wouldn't work? I thought it was working last night but apparently not?

What I'm trying to do is prevent an item from being added to the Listbox1 list twice...

So if the item is within the log, dont add it to listbox1. If it's not in the log or in listbox1 then add it.

If its not in logcmb but already in listbox1 then don't add it.

The logcmb is saved and loaded at form load and unload.

If LogCmb.Items.Contains(tmp) Then
                    'don't add it
                Else
                    If ListBox1.Items.Contains(tmp) Then
                        'This is already in the list
                    Else
                        If InStr(tmp, "http") Then
                            'if the string contains http then don't add it
                        Else
                            ListBox1.Items.Add(LCase(tmp))
                            statusbarlbl.Text = ListBox1.Items.Count & " available"
                        End If
                    End If
                End If

Try something like this:

If tmp.IndexOf("http") = 0 AndAlso LogCmb.Items.Contains(tmp.ToLower) = False Then
  ListBox1.Items.Add(tmp.ToLower)
  statusbarlbl.Text = ListBox1.Items.Count & " available"
End If

And don't make a new thread asking the same question

I think maybe the problem is that you are changing the item to all lower case when you add it. So when the item is checked against existing items if it has upper case letters then it won't match.

Try something like this:

If tmp.IndexOf("http") = 0 AndAlso LogCmb.Items.Contains(tmp.ToLower) = False Then
  ListBox1.Items.Add(tmp.ToLower)
  statusbarlbl.Text = ListBox1.Items.Count & " available"
End If

Thanks boss.
