Solved: Urgent Problem | Experts Exchange

Did you try to access the .SelectedItems collection to obtain the data of the selected row ?

BTW Why are you using an OLE listbox instead of the standard Access listbox ?

This is a program I inherited and I need to keep it running for another six months.

How do I access the .SelectedItems collection please. thanks

nico5038

Can you give the values for the "OLE Class" and "Class" that are visible in the Data tab of the control's properties ?

Thanks so much for answering back. I have found out that the error is at record 32769. I think it has something to do with the class but I'm not very familier with it. I'll post the class if that's ok. Thanks

Sorry I was changing stuff in the cdlDialogFailure I changed it to 38000 above and it orignally was -32768. I think this is where the error is but I'm not good enough with Access to tell.

Thanks

Public Enum adhErrorConstants
cdlAlloc = 32752
cdlBufferTooSmall = 20476
cdlCancel = 32755
cdlCreateICFailure = 28661

cdlDialogFailure = -32768

I changed the cdDialogFailure and it didn't make a differnce. If I delete one name from the access table which contains 35879 I can click on the next record and get it but I cannot go past 32768.

Thanks again for your help

where do you see that please

nico5038

Would need to see the database to find that, but you could try to right-click the "key" from Item.Key in the listbox code and select the "Definition" to see where it is defined and how.
