To populate the listbox, you have to first populate an array. Here is some code which I have directly cut out of one of my mbx programs. It fills a multi-list box, which is similar to a list box.

dim titleArray(50) as string

for i = 1 to tableInfo(theFeatureLayer,TAB_INFO_NROWS)

Fetch Rec i from theFeatureLayer

titleArray(i) = theFeatureLayer.col1

redim titleArray(i)

Dialog

Control MultiListBox

Title From Variable titleArray

id 2

Position 5, 25 Width 150 Height 50

Control CancelButton

calling shutDownDialog

Control OKButton

calling goSomewhere()

end sub

sub shutDownDialog()

'drop table Sel_R1

Dialog Remove

end sub

Hope this helps

Cheers

Subject: [MI-L] Populate listbox from table contents

Using MapBasic, how does one populate a ListBox with the values in a column?

I have managed to write a snippet of code that loops through the table and picks up the values in a particular column and then populates the Message Window; but the ListBox Control doesn't appear to have an "Add" or "AddItem" function associated with it (as in VB).

Can this be done in MapBasic? Does anyone have an example?
