Remember the details........

[Madboy]

I have two forms, one to add a password name, and password. The other to view password names through a list box, and a textbox to show the code. The idea is when i add text in the form that adds a new item, it puts it into the list box on the other form. (Which i have done like

frmPasswordStorer!lstMain.AddItem txtPasswordName.Text

The question in hand though is, when i click the listbox, it shows the correct code in my textbox. How can that be done?

If this is slightly confusing i will try and explain slightly more clear.

THANKS

Echo Jon. Why don't you go ahead and do this?

[nkad]

List1.ListIndex will get you the selected item

Look, only $12! BUY IT NOW BEFORE I STRANGLE YOU.

[Madboy]

Geez sorry

Its just you couldnt have read my thread very clear to have read it in the space of 1 minute, and in that time replying.

Basically this,

You add an item to a listbox, when you click the listbox item it display the correct text for that item. Which was set by the other form.

Apparently I'm not the only DUMB one

MadBoy...we are fast readers, and your question makes no sense...go ahead and reread it yourself

[James Stanich]

Your 2nd form would have to be open in order for your idea to work.

Instad, why not store the passwords in a texfile or database, and then load them into the listbox when the form to display them loads?

If I am missing it, let me know...

Is the "correct text" the text that is selected in the listbox?

[Madboy]

Thats what i would hope to do anyway james, read it from a text file (i want to save the listbox list in a text file when the app is closed). and then find out the item which was clicked, just dont know how.

Thanks James,

For nkad and some others, what is your problem?! I have done nothing to you, so stop jumping on my face[edited by moderator]GEEZ

[MartinLiss]

Let's everyone cool it and stick with asking and answreting questions please.

[ober0330]

chill out homeslice. We're not jumping you. You have just been posting a lot of stuff that seems like you haven't really thought it through. Slow down. Take a second look. Install MSDN.

[Madboy]

Ok, as simple as can be (This aint spamming ober).

Form1 - contains

Text1
List1

Form2 - contains

Text1
Text2

I load Form2, type text in Text1 (Password Name) which is sent to List1 in the other form. I type text in Text2 which is the Password Code. I now close this form, and return to Form1

List1 is now populated with the item(s) i entered in Form2. When i click List1, it should show text in Text1. This is the password.

Does this make anymore sense?

[nkad]

Madboy, first off...

list1.listindex WILL GET YOU THE SELECTED ITEM

Second, That book on amazon, trust me, you can't fail with it.

Third, I've seen your programs and I know you can do better then this. It just looks bad when you constantly ask the simplest of questions when the answers are teeming at your fingers, e.g. seach vbforums, use search engines, use the damn msdn!

forth, I really am a nice guy

[MartinLiss]

Please show the code that you are using to pass the data to Form1.

I wasn't talking to you, buddy

[Madboy]

Ok, yes i know thats what that does,

Secondly i have that book

Thirdly yes those programs were bad, but in all honestly were rush finish, i was just keen to get something on my new website. And how do you know whether i have or have not searched? Thats what i always do (normally) spend a few minutes browsing. And my current program is a File Manager program which features:

Shell Manager
Edit,Copy and Rename files
Password Storer (which is what i need help on)
File Browser, Quick and Advanced Search

And more!

Thanks anyway, and sorry marty, i just dont appreciate it when people try putting me down. And ober you called this spamming, you are just as bad as me for replying. And if i was spamming i wouldnt spend over 5 minutes typing each message. Im not a sad low life you know

[jhermiz]

You all sound like my cousin:


link dead

She doesn't cry that much!!!

Also ober wasn't referencing you he was referencing the stupid 12 dollar book!!!!

[Madboy]

ok ober sorry dude, is there a way to clear all these posts and start again? Its been a waste of a thread.

Anyway m,arty here is the code i got for getting the text in Form 2 to to the list in Form1:

frmPasswordStorer!lstMain.AddItem txtPasswordName.Text

Im off for me tea now, hopefully everyone including me will cool down. Ill start off with a few tinnies

ober was referring to the link in nkad's post and not you.

[nkad]

Ok I dont undrestand. I infact HAVE that book and it tells you EXACTLY how to use ALL of those questions you have been asking. Do you not like books?

P.S. I know your not a low life. Just an eager VB n00b (Yeah, we all were/are)

[Madboy]

Wel im not one for books, i have Sams Teach yourself Visual Basic and Visual Basic 6 Complete. Dont seem to help me though, its all way too confusing, I usually do try things on my own, thats the only way to learn. But come on, you must admit it is easier getting help online. I wouldnt be this far if i tried things my self and without your lots help. And Nkad, not been bad or anything, but 80% of the replies you make to me are totally unlrelated to the subject
