    Hi Guys/Gals

    I've been looking for an answer for this Please help ?

    How can we find the Y Coordinate of the selected/Highlighted item in a ListBox ??

    I want this Y value while using the Up/Down Key.

    I know i could use MouseDown Event But it works only while using the mouse. However,
    i tried invoking it in the list.Click Event with no success.

    Also, utilizeing GetCursorPos API wouldn't return the mouse Pos. in the listBox !!


    Thanx.

    This is how you get the Y coordinate. Place this in the KEYUP event of the listbox.

    Code:
    Me.Caption = List1.ListIndex * Me.TextHeight("Xyz") + List1.TopIndex

    Nitro, that won't work if you have different fonts in the listbox and form:
    Me.Font = List1.Font
    Use
    writing software in C++ is like driving rivets into steel beam with a toothpick.
    writing haskell makes your life easier:
    reverse (p (6*9)) where p x|x==0=""|True=chr (48+z): p y where (y,z)=divMod x 13
