    As myself and others in this thread have said, you are using the lCount parameter incorrectly. Your code is passing the value of 30 for lCount, but in your SampleListBox function there are only 6 elements in the string that you are parsing. The LISTBOX ADD statement is executing 30 times but only the PARSE$ is only retrieving 6 data elements from the string - the other 24 are blank strings.

    While composing your message, when you want to include code samples, first click on the # sign just above the message edit window. That will cause a pair of [ CODE ] [ /CODE ] markers to appear (without any spaces) - paste your code between [..DE] and [/COD..] That will present your code in a frame that preserves the formatting - much easier for others to read.

    In your code.. Compare the SampleListBox function in your code with the SampleListBox function posted in my last msg (post #9) for the answer you seek.

    (It's involves resetting the lCount value).

    Good luck!

    Here's my listbox code...

    What do I need to change to get it to work?

    Brian,

    Post the whole code so we can help.

    My first guess is that when you created the ListBox, you put blank lines in the listbox - but without seeing your code, I cannot tell.

    Also, when you show code in a post, please use the "#" button to put quotes around your code so the code will be easier to read.

    I put (more-or-less) your code in this example and it works just fine.

    Code:
    #Compile Exe
    #Dim All
    Global hDlg As Dword
    Function PBMain() As Long
      Dialog New Pixels, 0, "ListBox Test",300,300,200,200, %WS_SysMenu, 0 To hDlg
      Control Add Button, hDlg, 200, "Test", 50,10,75,20
      Control Add ListBox, hDlg, 100, ,50,50,75,100
      Dialog Show Modal hDlg Call DlgProc
    End Function
    
    CallBack Function DlgProc() As Long
      If Cb.Msg = %WM_Command And Cb.Ctl = 200 Then
        Local i As Long, Lcount As Long
        Local sItems As String, t As String
        sItems = "Yahoo,Excite,Google,Ask.com,AltaVista,Bing" ' Assign list once to a dynamic variable.
        lCount = 5
        For i = 1 To lCount
           ListBox Add hDlg, 100, Parse$(sItems, i)
        Next i
      End If
    End Function

    You're incoming value for the the lCount parameter in the SampleListBox function is probably a different value than the number of parses in the sItem string. Instead of passing in the lCount, why not just calculate the lCount value using ParseCount.

    I tried using this code to create a listbox
    well there is a lot of empty space before my items appear
    and this empty space is selectable
    what do I do to fix that?

    FUNCTION SampleListBox(BYVAL hDlg AS DWORD, _
    BYVAL lID AS LONG, _
    BYVAL lCount AS LONG) AS LONG
    LOCAL i AS LONG
    LOCAL sItems AS STRING

    sItems = "Yahoo,Excite,Google,Ask.com,AltaVista,Bing" ' Assign list once to a dynamic variable.

    FOR i = 1 TO lCount
    LISTBOX ADD hDlg, lID, PARSE$(sItems, i)
    NEXT i

    END FUNCTION

    Adding to a Listbox is easy enough, however inserting into a listbox is more involved.

    See the LISTBOX command page in your help file for the full list of DDT Listbox commands, specifically here the LISTBOX ADD statement. However if you will be inserting then see the LISTBOX insert command, which depends on if your listbox has the sort style off, if not use LISTBOX ADD.

    Are you using DDT or SDK format to create the dialog and listbox?

    ADDED: Dave posted just as I did... his response only works if you created it using the DDT method.
