Extracting an Item from a CListBox

[LuisEnrique]

Hello Everybody:
I have a CListBox that displays a list of files. I want to extract the name(string) of the file that is selected in the inbox. What do I need to do to do that? Any answer ir more than welcome.

Regards,

Normally you would do something like this...

// Get the data of the selected item
I = m_List1.GetCurSel();

where m_List1 is the List box....

then -

// Get the string in a CString object
nTextLen = m_List1.GetTextLen( I );
m_List1.GetText( I, data.GetBuffer(nTextLen) );

Now you have the required data in (CString) "data".
