[RESOLVED] Parse textbox to listbox - help

[Teletran]

How do I parse comma-seperated textbox entries and then populate a listbox?

In my example I have one textbox, let's say I type in the following:

comp1,comp2,comp3,comp4

I'd like to then (upon clicking a command button) have that textbox populate a listbox like so

comp1
comp2
comp3
comp4

Thanks for any help.

Let's assume that you do have "comp1,comp2,comp3,comp4"...the common element here is the "," between each entry.

So first we do dat = split(txtData,",") which splits the string above (assuming it's in txtData) into dat(0) to dat(3)

Now we need to add them to the list...that's a simple one too

for b=0 to ubound(dat())
lstDat.additem dat(b)
next b

That assumes the list is called lstDat. If that doesn't work, edit the "ubound(dat())" to say "ubound(dat)" (notice i changed dat() to dat...not sure which is right, I'm writing this outside of VB and haven't tested :-))

This worked. Problem solved.
