Currently,my prog. has a listbox which displays all the records from db,however right now i need to implement it such that a check box is allocated along with each of the data.How do i do that? Can i use data repeater ?? any ideas ... thanks

Componets/Windows common Controls 6 I think

A ListView is one type of control you could use.

You're in luck

   Listbox1.Style = 1

I could have sworn they had that capicity but I couldn't find the darn thing. [B}Style[/b] and I'm combing the mine fields looking for Check....da da dum dum

In case you missed it Paul has noted that the listbox itself has the checkbox capabilites under style. I'll see if I have anything on listview.I know I can't have much I've only use the control on a few occassions.

I found this..it might be right along the lines you are 
looking for. If you can't find anything on listviews here
then just go to my web page / links and there are 5 or 6 very good VB sites listed...Code Archive comes to mind as 
having very good zip files on controls.

Hey guys i was just thinking of using dataRepeater to display info from db but i wanna know if info can be updated to the db.Another qn is,if i were to use listview...it is possible to add multiple checkboxes to specified columns that are under the same list item.How do i do that..?i looked thro the internet for its functions but they seem to not facilate that feature.
