The difference is you can now easily use other controls to control the state. Or reuse the listbox somewhere else. g.forecolor = bgColour //set bgColour or it will paint black when it opens Top Display posts from previous: All posts1 day7 days2 weeks1 month3 months6 months1 year Sort by AuthorPost timeSubject AscendingDescending Page 1 of 1 [ 3 posts ] -- Over 1500 classes with 29000 functions in one REALbasic plug-in collection.
