[RESOLVED] [2005] Edit Item In Checked ListBox(......help help)

[maps]

I stripped part of my project and included where i need help.

ISSUE:
As in the attached sample, i have two checked listboxes ona form and a contextmenu for editing the items in the listboxes.
When i click on one or more items in the first Listbox, it brings the values related to the checked item in(Admin Level 1) to the Admin Level 2 listbox.
I populate and retrieve the values of the listboxes using an array class.

MAIN ISSUE:
When i populate (Admin Level 2 listbox) using the selectedIndexChanged Event for (Admin Level 1 listbox), i can't edit the items in the (listbox 1)!, yet i can edit the items in listbox 2!
To check this, try commenting out the routine that populates listbox 2 and then Edit the items in listbox 1. It works perfect, but when you uncomment it, it gives an error "Unable to cast object of type 'System.String' to type 'EditCheckedListBox.cls_ListComboItem'"! I get puzzled.
What am i getting wrong here. The SQL Statement is correct and it seems it gets called again.
Please help me.

Note: To Edit, right click an item in the listbox and click Edit.
I am sorry for not commenting out the code. But i presume its pretty
simple to understand for an average man

Hi,
I found couple the errors in your code. In the edit sub, you were trying to replace a cls_ListComboItem object with a String object. It would've been OK if you don't use that item again (that's why you can edit items in listbox2, but it crashes when you edit items in listbox1). However, you want to update listbox2 after the edit, thus it requires the use of the newly edited item (which is now a string)... Trying to cast a string to cls_ListComboItem object blew the application.... So I fixed it for you.
Another minor problem is you forget to check for null objects in another sub. I fixed that for you too.

Sub EditItems(ByRef lstControl As CheckedListBox)
        If lstControl.CheckedItems.Contains(lstControl.SelectedItem) Then ' Check WHETHER ITS SELECTED AND CHECKED.
            _frmEditItem = New frmEditItem
            _frmEditItem.tbItem.Text = lstControl.SelectedItem.ToString
 
            If _frmEditItem.ShowDialog(Me) = Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK Then
                _frmEditItem.InputName(inPut)
                '==============================================
                '==============================================
                Dim renamedItem As New cls_ListComboItem()
                renamedItem.Name = inPut
                renamedItem.ID = DirectCast(lstControl.SelectedItem, cls_ListComboItem).ID
                If lstControl.Items.Contains(renamedItem) Then ' Check Whether It contains The Value
                    MessageBox.Show("Item Already Exits" & " " & Chr(34) & inPut & Chr(34), "Exits", MessageBoxButtons.OK)
                    Exit Sub
                Else
                    lstControl.Items.Item(lstControl.SelectedIndex) = renamedItem
 
                    If Me.lstAdminLevel1.Focused Then
                        UpdateTable(Me.lstAdminLevel1, "tblAdminBdry1", "AdminBdry1", "AdminBdry1", CType(Me.lstAdminLevel1.SelectedItem, cls_ListComboItem).Name)
                    ElseIf Me.lstAdminLevel2.Focused Then
                        UpdateTable(Me.lstAdminLevel2, "tblAdminBdry2", "AdminBdry2", "AdminBdry2", CType(Me.lstAdminLevel2.SelectedItem, cls_ListComboItem).Name)
                    End If
                    '=============================================================
                    '=============================================================
                End If
 
            End If
        Else
            MessageBox.Show("Choose Item To Edit", "Choose", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Information)
            Exit Sub
        End If
 
    End Sub
 
Private Sub PopulateAdminBdry2List()  ' gets the Items For The Counties And Appends Other Counties
        'Dim ctrl As CheckedListBox = Me.lstAdminLevel1
        With Me.lstAdminLevel1
            If Me.lstAdminLevel1.CheckedItems.Count = 0 Then
 
            Else
                Dim strSQL As String = "SELECT * FROM tblAdminBdry2 WHERE AdminBdry1_ID IN ("
                For i As Integer = 0 To .CheckedItems.Count - 1
                    Dim itm As Object = .CheckedItems.Item(i)
                    If Not IsNothing(itm) Then
                        strSQL += "" & CType(itm, cls_ListComboItem).ID & ","
                    End If
                Next
                strSQL = strRight(strSQL, 1) & ")"
                PopulateColumnCheckedList(Me.lstAdminLevel2, strSQL, "AdminBdry2_ID", "AdminBdry2")
            End If
        End With
    End Sub
