[RESOLVED] Setting listindex for a listbox that has index

i have a program that has 25 listboxs indexed, 1 thru 25. However I can't seem to change the list index for each listbox while loading settings.

Example

Code:

---

lstTask(bla).ListIndex = sGetINI(App.Path & "\MYAPP.INI", txtEmail, "LstTask", "0")

---

What am I doing wrong, when code is ran, the lsttask.list is cleared

Did you try stepping though code to see what value the sGetINI returns?

Also, what does the application do? Just curious as 25 listboxes sounds a bit much (unless you use them in the background for whatever reason and are not visible to the user).

Usually when you set a list index to any empty list or set it to a value that equals or exceeds the list count, you will receive an immediate error message.

I have never heard of a situation where setting a list index to any value ever clears the elements within a list. :confused:

It hit me finally, that I wasn't adding the values to the list for each list on load up.

That would do it. Glad we could help you. :)
