Hi Mark,
By default the first Item in the List will be selected when the
form is loaded. You have to check two possibilities for your problem.
1: Check the List pointer pointing to your List Box (If your ListPtr
is pointing to any other Object then you will always have 0 as return
value. -
listptr = FrmGetObjectPtr(formPtr, FrmGetObjectIndex
(formPtr,objectIndex)); /* here check the objectIndex to list box*/
2: If the List Box is having first item selected by default, set the
selection to -1 (i.e )
LstSetSelection(listptr,-1);
in the form load event.
Thanks,
Manikumar K
