How to SET the value of a Listview / Combobox item?

[belinea2003]

I have another problem.

I can select a contact in the dropdown by it it´s telephone number

Me.listbox1.SelectedValue = "555-125-4587"

But I cannot select a contact in the dropdown by it´s name.

Me.listbox1.SelectedItem = "John Doe"

When I try this, the dropdown stays at the current selected entry.

Can you help me again bmahler? Thank you...
