Total items in listbox??

[Greg Smith]

I have a listbox that imports custom information.

[1] What line of code would I use to get the total number
of items in the listbox??

[2] What about code to check if the listbox has been
populated??

Thanks, Greg

You can use the ListCount property for both (if the count = 0, the list box isn't populated). If you're not up to speed on referencing Outlook form controls in form VBSCript, see http://www.slipstick.com/dev/propsyntax.htm#unbound.

The URL provided shows how to get an Outlook control as an object. ListCount would be a property of that object. Hence:

Set objPage = Item.GetInspector.ModifiedFormPages("My Page")
Set objControl = objPage.Controls("ListBox1")
MyCount = objControl.ListCount

I went to the link that you provided and even selected all
the links on the page but I did not see anything that
covered listcount. Can you tell me how to use it?? An
example would be great.
