Removing items from the "SelectedItems" in a ListBox

[Robin Tucker]

SelectedItems and SelectedIndices appear to be read-only, so I cannot remove
a selected item. I need to do this to synchronise the selection in my list
with the selection in other views (ie. select in another view and the
selected items in my list change).

How can I change the selected items in a list box!??

Hi Robin,

Did you try the removeAT?
\\\\
listBox1.Items.RemoveAt(x)
///

Dim t As ListBox.SelectedObjectCollection

t = Me.lst_Classification.SelectedItems



Could you do something like this and do a t.Add / t.Remove whatever?

I think this removes the item from the listbox, not only from the list of
selected items.

True.

selected items.

Hi Armin,

mylistbox.setselected(index, true)

I think this set the selected item

To remove (deselect) is
mylistbox.setselected(index, false)

I would like to point out thought I did see it, but did not make a comment
on it until AFTER Armin had.

Cheers all. As so often happens, I had a Doh! moment just after posting the
question. The method isn't on the item (of course) or the item collection,
its on the list itself, so I used ListBox.SetSelectedItem(a, b). Bad design
imho
