[VB6] Going through listbox items and looping my commands.

[SmileYaDead]

I've been working on a program for a few days and I think I'm almost done, but since this is all my coding experience, I'm not good and rely mostly on tutorials. I just need some help getting my listbox items to be chosen automatically, at the moment I have to click on each one of the items and then click on the command button to get it to work. Should I use a different approach for the text list itself or..?

Also, looping is somehow a problem for me -.-

Thanks :)

Idk about VB6, but it Java, you use a for each loop.

I'm sure someone will give you an exact answer, but look up for each loops.

Do until x = lstBox.listcount - 1
code here
x = x + 1
loop

Do until x = lstBox.listcount - 1
code here
x = x + 1
loop

Better version:


x = 0
Do While x < lstBox.ListCount
'code here
x = x + 1
Loop

Or even a for loop:

For x = 0 To lstBox.ListCount - 1
'code here
Next x

In these cases, x is an index of the listbox.
You access the string in the listbox by lstBox.List(index)

Thanks, I'll put this in tomorrow, need some sleep.

How would these be in the VB 2010 version?

How would these be in the VB 2010 version?

Close to the same:



Dim x = 0
Do While x < lstBox.Items.Count
'code here
x += 1
Loop

Or even a for loop:

For x As Integer = 0 To lstBox.Items.Count - 1
'code here
Next x

In these cases, x is an index of the listbox.
You access the string in the listbox by lstBox.Items(index)
