Looping through 2 list boxes

[Josh2022]

kinda a continuation to my other thread, but i think it would just be better to start a new thread..

Ok, i have 2 list boxes (list1, list 2), a web browser, and a start button.. I have it so the emails are in one list box, list1, and the passwords are in the 2nd listbox, list2. I highlight the first login in each box, and it sucessfully works, but i havent set it to go down the whole list of emails and passwords to do the same thing to each one to the end of each list box, i dont know how to do that.. i suppose it would be some kind of do/loop but i cant figure it out... There is also a load button, to load the txt file into the list boxes, but thats not really important because that already works.

Dim i As Long
 
For i = 0 To List1.ListCount - 1
    'do whatcha gotta do through each loop here.
Next

For i = 0 To List1.ListCount - 1
    'do whatcha gotta do through each loop here.
Next [b]i[/b]

VB is a mixture of sequential and event driven.
Actions etc can fire off events in VB code.
However code that is being executed also has a desire to continue to the next line.
(Until it reaches the exit point of it's procedure.)

The answer probably depends on what needs to happen between lines ?

You could set up a loop such as -

For i = 0 To lbo1.ListCount - 1
  'code doing stuff for each line
  ' using  lbo1(i).List(i)
Next i

That loop will process each line in sequence, until it runs out of data.

However you may not want the 2nd line jumping in too soon ?
So we may need to know a bit more about your 'needs'

What is the difference between your post and mine?

do i need to have 2 for/next loops though? cause i have 2 list boxes that need to change at the same time, you know?

Yes, you would and they should probably both be in the same code routine.

If you have to do something to each item in both listboxes at the same time, then there's no reason for the second loop. The first one tells you the item number of both listboxes.

...to do the same thing to each one to the end of each list box, i dont know how to do that.. i

If you only need to do one thing to one of the listboxes, then dglienna is right, but based on the above comment, I thought you needed to do something to each listbox each time.

@ hack, i thought that every for loop had to have a corresponding next..

anyway i guess its good coding to use it

wow, you guys are so helpful! thankyou. ^_^

You do have to do a cooresponding Next, but you don't have list the looping variable. VB is smart enought to figure out what Next goes with what For, and if your code is properly indented, as it should always be, it is easy enough for anyone to figure out what does with what.

So, how are you doing on coding this issue? Are you still running into some difficulties.

If it's usenames and passwords, there is a one to one correlation, so that's why I posted what I did.
