| In my program, I need to export the contents of a List Box into a Text Box so it could go into a text file. I figured that part out (however, if somone knows a more direct way of putting a List Box into a text file, then feel free to tell me). However, I am not exactly sure on how to do the opposite...getting the contents of the text box into the list box. I need to do it in a way so that each line would be each item of the line box. Is there some way or function of calling a text box by it's lines, and exporting them into a string or something similar? I apologize if this post is confusing. |

| This is how I get a listbox into a textbox. (in case it's different than yours) Private Sub Command3_Click() itemSelectedindex = List1.ListIndex Text25.Text = Text25.Text & List1.Text & vbCrLf Dim IntNext As Integer, IntMax As Integer Text25.Text = "" Text25.Refresh IntMax = List1.ListCount For IntNext = 0 To IntMax - 1 itemSelectedindex = Me.List1.List(IntNext) Text25.Text = Text25.Text & itemSelectedindex & vbCrLf Next End Sub Hope this helps you out some.

| II think that would actually work better then my way....(which was to use the List contents as strings using the List Index or whatever, and string them all together using "vbCrLf". Of course, I haven't tested it out yet....but yeah. Your method probably would work bette.r |

| What values are in the text box? If they're all one word or every entry that needs to be sepparately in the listbox is on it's own line in the textbox, you could use the split() function too. | |||

Originally posted by Tuvai The values are file paths in the text box. The values then go to the list box. How does the split() function work? I think that was the one I was thinking of at first, but I'm not sure. |

| Here's a short example of how split works (just open up a new project and put this in the window code): ---------- Option Explicit Private Sub Form_Load() Dim TestString As String, SplitString() As String TestString = "I_Like_Pie" SplitString = Split(TestString, "_") MsgBox SplitString(0) MsgBox SplitString(1) MsgBox SplitString(2) End Sub ---------- Function name pretty much explains it, it splits stuff by delimiters (which can be more than one character). If you've worked with PHP before, Visual Basic's split() is the same as PHP's explode(). |

| Ah! Thank you. I believe that will work. |
