Location: new jersey                Now I know how to ask this question...

Background question information
I have a single column listbox, textbox and a push button control in a window.

1) the list box has been pre loaded with some date in each row.
2) The text box allows user to put some data in it.  (non descript)
3) the push button is to save the data from the list box and text box to a 
table in a database.
4) Database has two columns (name and msg)

Question 
1) How do I take the data from the list box and text box and write to a table, 
with each row being a new entry into the table?

I have tried using an array to store it as an index but only get the first row 
to write to the table.  (see code below)  And can not get it to loop properly. 

2) Ho do I take the number of rows that have data that are in a list box and us 
that number to tell the array how much space it is supposed to have.
_____
push button action code
  Dim nameArray(5) as string //make room for 5 elements in the array
  Dim i as Integer
  
  For i = 0 to Listbox1.Listcount -1
  nameArray(i) = Listbox1.list(i) // assign a name to each index in the array
  
  Savelist2(i)
  
  
  next
  i = i +1
  
______
method (savelist2 code)
//savelist2 is has the properity of (index as integer)  
  DIM dr as new DatabaseRecord
  
  
  'writing to table
  dr.column("name") =listbox1.cell(listbox1.ListIndex,0)
  dr.column("msg") =statictext1.text
  
 //'test1=database name
//table is the table I am writing to
  test1.InsertRecord "table",dr
  test1.Commit
  
thanks
