scrolling a list box?

I am trying to scroll down a listbox, i.e., when they click list, it lists all of the items in a list. I can list and add to the listbox just fine, but when it reaches the end, it doesnt automatically scroll down... i need it 2 scroll down!

This will scroll to the last item:

VB Code:

If ListBox1.Items.Count > 0 Then
            ListBox1.SelectedIndex = ListBox1.Items.Count - 1
        End If

this causes an error. the exact coe i am using in this part is

VB Code:

Sub listwords()
        Dim arrCommands() As String = {"look", "go", "get", "put", "inventory"}
        Dim i As Single = 0
        Me.lstText.Items.Add("")
        Me.lstText.Items.Add("Commands Are:")
        For i = 0 To 4
            Me.lstText.Items.Add(arrCommands(i))
        Next
        If lstText.Items.Count > 0 Then
            lstText.SelectedIndex = lstText.Items.Count - 1
        End If
    End Sub

the error states: "An unhandled exception of type 'System.ArgumentException' occurred in system.windows.forms.dll

Additional information: Cannot call this method when SelectionMode is SelectionMode.NONE"

Like it says you can have an item selected when the selectionmode propert is set to None. Change it to something that allows selections.

wow... this is definately not the newb forum...

i dont know vb that well, so i am asking for the code lolol

You don't need any code for that. Just select the Listbox on the form at designtime. Go to Properties on the lower right and find the SelectionMode property. Then set it to anything but None.
