[RESOLVED] Highlighting a item in a ListBox

[seditives]

Hi, Just one straight forward question that's been playing on my mind how would I go about highlighting a item in a ListBox if this atoll posible????

I dont mean the sort of highlight you get when you select a item. A item that will be highlighted and cant be clicked on.

For example:

Item1
Item2
Item3
Item4
Item5
Item6
Item7
Item8

I can still select Item 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8 but not Item 4 as its colour of the text has been changed to blue.

Nope. Not with a standard VB listbox. You have 2 options I can think of

1) Find or create a custom listbox control
2) Use a ListView instead -- much easier

TY LaVolpe but I am going to go with my plan B which is to take the item in the ListBox away all together. The function of my ListBox wont be compromised. Its just that highlighting it would of been visually better. I suppose its functionality over looks at the end of the day with programming. lol
