Listbox.SelectedObjectCollection

[Guest]

I've added objects to a listbox using

lst.DisplayMember = "CustomerName"
lst.Items.Add(New CCustomer( theData("ID"), theData("CustomerName")))

if I used lst.SelectedIndex I always get the last item in the list irrespective of whether it was selected. So I thought perhaps I should be using the SelectedObjectCollection.

I can't figure out how to use it, can someone show me some example code

I was thinking

for each obj in lst.SelectedObjectCollection

but the compiler doesnt like this it says
"SelectedObjectCollection is a type and cannot be used in an expression"

Thanks

Hi,

Use SelectedItems instead.
