2003 Forms :: Listbox selecting problem

[cliefan]

I have created a form in Outlook 2003 with custom contact fields and
such, including Listbox's. The form is functional except for what seems
to be a bug.
The problem lies in the Listbox's with Category Fields. There are 3
different list boxes that all have 8-10 checkable items.

When I run the form (or choose the form), I must click twice in some of
the ListBox's to select an item(s). the other Listbox's are fine with
me just clicking once on the item(s) to select them. I thought I may
have just missed a setting somewhere and that was the reason some of
the listbox's were having this problem and the others weren't, but that
is not he case, becuase it is totally random. Everytime I run the
from, different Listbox's have this problem...and others are fine.

I have check the properties of each and they all match, so this is
really getting frustrating.

I have tried this on different machines and have tried clearing the
Form Cache.

Not an expert by any means but:

Are your listbox's bound or unbound?

Only an Unbound list box responds to the Click() event, whereas with a bound
listbox you may use the Item_PropertyChange() event. However this event for a
listbox is only captured once you change focus to another control or Save the
form. This is "normal and expected" behaviour apparently in Outlook.

Sorry if this is no help.
