Listbox bound

[Mike O]

Hello,

I have the same problem




I have a simple listbox in outlook form,

when i make multi selction, if i lose focus on the list then all selected
values are gone

i set the property MultiSelect = multi ==> same problem
if i set it to "Extended" ==-> again same problem

only single value works; but i need multiselection ?


I found similer problem but i didn't know how to bound the control

See http://www.outlookcode.com/article.aspx?ID=38 for a screen shot showing
how to find a control to a field, and also see
http://www.outlookcode.com/article.aspx?ID=32, the section on list boxes.

Thank you Sue,

But what is written there is not easy for me, i just need an example.
It's written, "Use code in the Item_Write event to store the selections in a
delimited list in a text property, then reverse the process to reload the
selections in the Item_Open event handler" .

this is not clear for me. but thank you any way

The form you can download from the article on list boxes has such code
examples.

Thank you Sue,
The last listbox using the Item_write doesn't work
i made a stop statement to see if the item_write fires but it doesn't

any idea?

Ok, Item_write is fired when formis saved.

but my problem is still there, maybe i couldn't explain.

In my form, i have 3 multi listbox
when i make a multi selection in any one of them, then i go to another
control, all selected values are gone. even before i close the form

any idea?

Ok, i just found it in your post "Have to use Keyword not text"
Thanks a lot Sue
