Hi everyone

have been asked to maintain a Borland Builder 6 application - though im
more used to another environment have been finding Builder quite fun as
a change.

I have run into a problem - in the app there is a form which has an
owerdrawn TListbox (items added dynamically to it also),
I have been asked to change the behaviour of the listbox from a single
select to a multi select
To do this I have set the properties to Multiselect = true and also
extendedselect = true;

The app builds and runs, however after items have been added to the
Tlistbox i cannot seem to get any of the items to highlight when
clicked upon - also the number of selected items is always 0 (checked
this by adding a breakpoint etc in the drawitem code)

I was wondering if anyone had run into this problem. or if anyone could
suggestion a solution

regards

Buzz

it might also help to know that the tlistbox has 3 columns, a bitmap, a
checkbox and text on each row

I have noticed that the each row clicked on seems to have a "dotted
select" type rectange around the item when clicked, but the listbox
object claims that nothing is selected.
