Pete,

Heres how I do it:

// set the initial selected item in the list
               LstSetSelection(list, 1);
// update the trigger label to whatever sel is current in the list
               CtlSetLabel(trigger_control, LstGetSelectionText(list, 1));
// note: you could always use the LstGetSelection to get the ID vs my 
// hardcord #1
