checkbox in listbox?

Hello,
In a listbox, is it possible to show a logical
field using a checkbox, like it does in a grid?
If it is, how is it done?
Thank you.

No, but you may display one of two images
and use the mousedown event as click/inter-
activechange and exchange the image from
checked to unchecked.

But why not simply make it a multiselect listbox?

Bye, Olaf.

Thanks for replying.

What I want is to display a customer list
for user to select and have all the selected
records printed as labels. I thought using
a listbox was an easy way out. I could have
used a grid but I just thought a listbox would
look nicer.

Thanks anyway.

nothing against it, but a setting the listbox to
multiselect would be sufficient to select several
customers, wouldn't it?

list1.multiselect = 1 && or .t.

Bye, Olaf.

The bitmaps referred to no longer ship in that location, but you can find
checkbox bitmaps in the Graphics directory.

Hmm. I just checked. The bitmaps are still there.

HI,
why don't you use a grid filled by a view or a SQL-Query

Select *,.f. as lSelected from customer
Put a grid on the form and add a checkbox in the lSelect column. and set it
as currentcontrol

Having been told it's not possible to add the checkbox
to a listbox, and also decided not to go the bitmap way,
a grid is exactly what I'm using now, and setting the
grid-lines value to "none" to make it look more
like a listbox. ;)

Hi JW,

I had this problem a little while ago. I ended up using a TREE control. The
MS one.
I can have chkboxes, images and text on one row if I like.

jw,

You can pretty much make a grid look exactly like a listbox by tweaking a
few properties.

DeleteMark = .f.
GridLines = 0
HeaderHeight = 0
RecordMark = .f.
ScrollBars = 2

Darren,

Tree control doesn't exactly fit my case,
but thanks for the suggestion anyway.
