How to tell if a list box has been clicked 2

[gwar2k1]

Im writing validation and i have a button that removes an item from a list box. Obviously if the list isnt populated or a selection within the list hasnt been made, an error occurs... Im using this code which resolves the empty list problem but not the highlightedness:

If (lst2.ListCount <> 0) Or (lst2.Selected = False) Then
  lst2.RemoveItem (lst2.ListIndex)
End If

can any one tell me what im doing wrong? merci

TIA

lst2.ListIndex will be -1 if there are no items or nothing selected.

If you do this it doesn't work?

Private Sub lst2_Validate(Cancel As Boolean)
If lst2.ListIndex <> -1 Then
lst2.RemoveItem lst2.ListIndex
End If
End Sub

&quot;Two strings walk into a bar. The first string says to the bartender: 'Bartender, I'll have a beer. u.5n$x5t?*&4ru!2[sACC~ErJ'. The second string says: 'Pardon my friend, he isn't NULL terminated'.&quot;

nope:

Private Sub btn2_Click()

If (lst2.ListCount <> 0) Or (lst2.ListIndex <> -1) Then
  lst2.RemoveItem (lst2.ListIndex)
End If

End Sub

Error: Runtime error 5: Invalid call or procedure or argument

Change to just:
If lst2.ListIndex <> -1 Then
lst2.RemoveItem (lst2.ListIndex)
End If
because when listcount is = to 3 it would be true but you can not remove item lst2.ListIndex = -1
