Datalist Scrolling

[DonRI]

I am new to using VB6. If a user highlights an item in a datalist, but then scrolls the selected item out of sight, is there anyway to automatically force the highlighted item to reappear? I've looked around but don't happen to see a solution. Thanks.

That depends on what kind of datalist you're using, but usually some combination of a scrollTo command (or similar) with a command that returns the position of the selected row will do the job.

If you are using an ordinary Listbox then you should use the TopIndex property.
[tt]If List1.ListIndex >= 0 Then List1.TopIndex = List1.ListIndex[/tt]

If you are using a ListView control then you should use the EnsureVisible method.
[tt]ListView1.SelectedItem.EnsureVisible[/tt]
