Select ListboxItem [solved]

Code:

Dim val As Integer = 0
     val = ListBox1.Items.Count
     ListBox1.SelectedItem = val

Im using that code . . . But, It doesnt work , I want to select the last item of the listbox using a variable to later modifie it.

thanks

You can select the last item by doing ListBox1.Items.Count - 1.

Use the "SelectedIndex" property to change which item is selected. Indices start at 0 and go to the size of the collection - 1.

Dim val As Integer = 0
val = ListBox1.Items.Count -1
ListBox1.SelectedItem = val

I think you mean:

[highlight=vb.net]
ListBox1.SelectedIndex = ListBox1.Items.Count - 1
[/highlight]

Marked solved. No more posting unless absolutely necessary.

Code:

 val = ListBox1.Items.Count - 1
                ListBox1.SelectedIndex = val

I need to make a timer that the selected index Is 9 then 8 then 7 . . . etc

Code:

ListBox1.SelectedIndex = val - 1

But that code dont work

[highlight=vb]
ListBox1.SelectedIndex = ListBox1.SelectedIndex.ToString - 1
[/highlight]

While the logic is correct, why the hell did you convert it to string?

[highlight=vb.net]
ListBox1.SelectedIndex -= 1
[/highlight]

Would work.

thanks
