Hi Kevin,
I just had a play. Try this
Set 'style' prop to 'lbOwnerDrawFixed'.
Add some items (I used 3).
Add this code to the 'OnDrawItem' event handler:
procedure TForm1.ListBox1DrawItem(Control: TWinControl; Index: Integer; Rect: TRect;
State: TOwnerDrawState);
begin
with listbox1.Can

Done with the ItemIndex property.
Simply set ListBox1.ItemIndex to the line you want highlighted remembering
that ItemIndex starts at line 0.
Set ItemIndex to -1 to select no line.
