Getting selection from a Listbox

[Dave Stanton]

Wyman,
You are, of course, quite right.
I've been looking at the code for the last few hours, and I
couldn't see the wood for the trees.
Thanks for the reality check,
Dave

Don't you need to use LISTBOX GET TEXT hDlg&, id& TO text$ ???

I hope someone can help with suggestions for this one.


I'm creating a listbox with the symbols of all of the elements which works well, however
when trying to retrieve the selected string all I get is a null string
To debug this I'm using a Msgbox, normally it goes into a string array.

  CONTROL ADD LISTBOX ,ghDlg, %ID_Grid0, A(),150,10,60,50,%LBS_NOTIFY OR _
                             %WS_VSCROLL OR %WS_BORDER  CALL AtomCallBack 

............................

  CALLBACK FUNCTION AtomCallBack()
       LOCAL B$
       
             IF CBCTLMSG = %LBN_SELCHANGE THEN
                
                CONTROL GET TEXT ghDlg,%ID_Grid0 TO B$
                
                MSGBOX B$,,"Element"

             END IF
   END FUNCTION
