Quesion: Visible (True/False)....

In a List Box, I want to be able to show a certian number of names based on the selection from another List Box. Can I make it so only relevant info is displayed in the second List Box based on the original selection by using the Visible True False?

In other words, you click in List Box 1 and based on your selection, determines what is displayed in List Box 2.

Thanks,

Joe

Items in a listbox do not have visible properties, they are just objects (usually strings) so you cannot make them visible/invisible.

You will have to add code under the change event for the first listbox and then add the data to the 2nd listbox depending on the options: e.g

Code:

---


    Private Sub ListBox1_SelectedIndexChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles ListBox1.SelectedIndexChanged

        MsgBox(CStr(ListBox1.SelectedItem) & " has been selected")
        'Add the avaiable options to the other box
        ListBox1.Items.Clear()

        If CStr(ListBox1.SelectedItem) = "Option1" Then
            ListBox2.Items.Add("New option1")
            ListBox2.Items.Add("New option2")
            ListBox2.Items.Add("New option3")
        Else
            ListBox2.Items.Add("Different option1")
            ListBox2.Items.Add("Different option2")
            ListBox2.Items.Add("Different option3")
        End If

    End Sub

Thanks a bunch:p I will try it now.
