Miyako,

Thanks, but that’s not the issue. Listbox 1 is an entity selection of messages. 
One row has been clicked, and I know (from current item) what the selection is. 
One of the attributes of the selection is the number of the contact who sent or 
received the message.

Listbox 2 contains an entity selection of contacts (names and numbers). When a 
message is selected in LB1, I want to highlight in LB2 the contact related to 
the message. How do I find out which row to specify in LISTBOX SELECT 
ROW(*;”LB2”;…)?

They’re both single-select boxes.

Jeremy
