listboxname |
The name of the ListBox or PictureListBox in which you |
Return value
String.
Returns the text of the selected item in listboxname. Returns the
empty string (“”) if no items are selected. If listboxname is null,
SelectedItem returns null.
Usage
SelectedIndex and SelectedItem are meant for lists that allow a
single selection only (when the MultiSelect property for the control is
false).
When the MultiSelect property is true, SelectedItem gets the text of
the first selected item only. Use the State function, instead of
SelectedItem, to check each item in the list and find out if it is
selected. Use the Text function to get the text of any item in the
list.
Examples
If the text of the selected item in the ListBox lb_shortcuts is F1,
then this example sets ls_item to F1:
|
1 2 |
string ls_Item ls_Item = lb_Shortcuts.SelectedItem() |
