(Resolved) Removing Items from listbox

I have a string called "Alias". Basically when a user quits the program I need lstUsers list to remove the value of "Alias" from the list. How do I do that???

VB Code:

Dim indx As Long
 
'If you wan't to remove [b]all[/b] instances of "Alias"
For indx = List1.ListCount - 1 To 0 Step -1
    If List1.List(indx) = "Alias" Then List1.RemoveItem indx
Next
 
 
'Or
 
'If you wan't to remove [b]one[/b] instance of "Alias"
Dim indx As Long
 
For indx = List1.ListCount - 1 To 0 Step -1
    If List1.List(indx) = "Alias" Then
        List1.RemoveItem indx
        Exit For
    End If
Next

You may have to watch your CAPS in comparing strings. I have had trouble in the past where "Alias" is not the same as "alias".

If you know uppercase/lowercase the text is in then you are OK otherwise use the Ucase() function to change both strings to the same case.

I said I made a varaible called Alias. Alias is the var! its contents are what im removing, not the word Var....just cauz im a Junior Member dosnt mean i dont know some programming stuff....

OK I guess we both misread your post. Use Bruce Fox's code but put your variable at the correct place and be careful of upper and lowercase characters.

I remember being junior once.

Yea I'm getting there....

Thanks for the heads up anyways i found the " around the word Alias in Brute's code and deleted them. The code works wonderfully now!
