Thanks for your reply Aaron,
Actually when I said "select" I meant "highlight" an item in the ListBox. In
fact I want the highlighting to follow the ItemIndex.
I tried setting Multiselect to true and it works but I don't want the user
to be able to select more than one at a time. Maybe I'll just have to
explicitly un-select every item every time I select another (and every time
the user clicks on one).

Is multiselect turned on... If not then the selected item is indicated by
the ItemIndex
property. It's possible that the Selected[n] array property is not
populated unless
multiselect is true.
