Getting value from a list box

[afryer]

Hello everyone,

I have a list box in Delphi and I need to know how to extract the value. I can get the ListIndex property to get the position in the list that is selected, but I have no idea how to extract the relavent values selected from the list.

Any help would be appreciated as I am very new to Delphi.

Hi Andrew,

it's not listindex but itemindex. to get the current selected item do this :

 if ListBox1.ItemIndex > -1 then // always check if something is selected
  Mystring:=ListBox1.Items[ListBox1.ItemIndex];

cheers
