------- Additional comments from voob...@openoffice.org Thu Oct 22 07:31:48 +0000 2009 ------- I have been using a multiselection listbox as part of a dialog which is called from a macro and used for a "Base" form and have found that it is not possible to select the first element independantly by feeding an array to the "SelectedItems" property. The problem which occurs is that the first element is always selected even when the elements of the array do not assign the first listbox item to be selected. For example... Sub Test_Dialog_Multiselection_Listbox dim varTestArray(3) as string dim varSelectedItems(3) as integer Rem... First construct an array for the List varTestArray(0) = "One" varTestArray(1) = "Two" varTestArray(2) = "Three" varTestArray(3) = "Four" Rem... Access the model of the listbox which has been constructed with the Dialog editor. DialogLibraries.LoadLibrary( "Settings" ) DeviceDetails = CreateUnoDialog( DialogLibraries.Settings.TestListbox ) DeviceDetails.title = "Allocate the Systems you need" DevicedetailsModel = DeviceDetails.Model DeviceDetailsModel.GetByName("D_lbSystem").StringItemList() = varTestArray() Rem... Now construct the varSelectedItems array and use the "SelectedItems" property... 'varSelectedItems(0) = 0 Rem... "Should" enable selecting first list element varSelectedItems(1) = 1 Rem... enables selecting second list element varSelectedItems(2) = 2 Rem... enables selecting third list element varSelectedItems(3) = 3 Rem... enables selecting fourth list element DeviceDetailsModel.GetByName("D_lbSystem").SelectedItems = varSelectedItems() i = DeviceDetails.Execute() End sub Note how the first element in the varSelectedItems array is commented out. When the listbox is run it shows with all its four elements selected, indicating a problem with controlling the first element this way. As expected, if other elements of that array are commented out then the corresponding list element does not show. The only way to faithfully control the selection of all the elements is to use an array like this instead... (and you must use the word "array") DeviceDetailsModel.GetByName("D_lbSystem").SelectedItems = Array(1,2,3) ... which would select the second, third and fourth elements of the list. The problem with using this way is that it is not possible to programably control the array elements, for example you can not use a variable with "1,2,3", such as n = "1,2,3" and then Array(n), or using a array within an array such as Array(OtherArray()) All this makes it not possible to programably control which elements of the list is selected or not. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
