Bob,

I'm assuming that your code does "pre-selection" for you.
If so, the variable list view can do it as well as other controls mentioned 
by Razzak.

However, you say you want to "obtain the value" of a selected record, you 
will have multiple values.

I simply need to obtain the value of the selected record.

However I did not see how to "preselect" a record in the variable list view. 
 This is an item master.  The user is going to select an item, but I need to 
start at the most likely item to be selected.   I do not see how to find the 
item index.   There is no where clause?

Bob,

My short answer is the variable list view.
I know it will work.

What do you need to do with the "selected items"?

I need suggestions on what form control to use to select a record

Requirements:
Control must handle 2000+ records

Display two columns

Have a predetermine record already selected  and high lighted in the proper
list order.

Display 15 records in a scrolling region

Example:

123.  Test
124.  Testa
125   Testb
126.  Testc
127.  Testd
Etc

I need record 126 pre-selected/highlighted with
 the ability to select any other record in the 2000+ item list  

So when the control is called,  it may need to start the display at record 
900  - 915 and have the ability to scroll forward or backward

Thanks
