lExpr
The settings for the SelectedID property are:
| Setting | Description |
| True (.T.) | The item is selected. |
| False (.F.) | (Default) The item isn't selected. |
Remarks
The SelectedID property is particularly useful where users can make multiple selections. You can quickly check which items in a list are selected. You can also use this property to select or deselect items in a list using code. To check whether the third item in a ListBox is selected, issue the following:
IF MyList.SelectedID(3)
WAIT WINDOW "It's selected!"
ELSE
WAIT WINDOW "It's not!"
