[AccessD] List Box Selection on a Report

I didn't think that was a problem if multiselect was set to none.

Chester,

The problem is that a list box might have multiple selections made,
depending on the multi-select mode that is specified for the control.
So you can't just refer to the control, you have to tell it which
item(s) in the list on the control you want.  One way to do this is to
loop thru the ItemsSelected for the list box:

Dim varItem as Variant
For Each varItem in Me!MyListBox.ItemsSelected
	'(. . .  Your Code Here . . .)
	'Use Me!MyListBox.ItemData(varItem) to retrieve the value in the
bound column of the list box.
	'Use Me!MyListBox.Column(ColumnIndex, varItem) to retrieve
values from other columns
Next

Hope this helps.

Don

I have form with a list box on it. When the user clicks on a selection,
an on click event runs that opens a report based on the selection. This
works fine. Now I need to display the list box selection in a text box
on the report. I set the text box control source to
=Forms]![Form1]![ManifoldList]. This just returns Name? What might I be
doing wrong?
