Applies To

File list box1M6S8UX, list boxG11UCK.

Description

Determines the selection status of an item in a file list box or list box.  This property is an array of Boolean values with the same number of items as the ListBKCX6E property.  Not available at design time.

Usage

[form.]{ filelistbox|listbox}.Selected(index)[ = { True|False}]

Setting

The Selected property settings are:

Setting             Description

 

True                 The item is selected.

False                (Default) The item is not selected.

 

Remarks

This property is particularly useful where users can make multiple selections.  You can quickly check which items in a list are selected.  You can also use this property to select or deselect items in a list from code.

If only one item is selected, you can use the ListIndex4K7KHR property to get the index1L6K9K3 of the selected item.  However, in a multiple selection, the ListIndex property returns the index of the item contained within the focus rectangle, whether or not the item is actually selected.
