Specifies the unique ID number for the selected item in a ComboBox or ListBox control. Not available at design time; read-write at run time.
Syntax
Control.ListItemID[ = nItemID]
Settings
nItemID
The settings and interpretations for the ListItemID property are:
| Setting | Description |
| – 1 | Indicates no items selected. For a combo box, it means that the user has entered a value not in the list. |
| 1 (or any number greater than 1) | The item ID of the selected item. |
Remarks
If an item is removed from a list using the RemoveListItem method, all remaining items retain their unique identification numbers. When an item is added to a list using the AddItem method, and the Sorted property is set to false (.F.), nItemID is assigned the lowest number available. When an item is added to a list using the AddListItem method, and the Sorted property is set to false (.F.), you can assign any number to nItemID.
