Try the following:

Select allOpen in new window

I thought that was the way to go myself but got..

Requested operation is not available because the runtime library function 'Microsoft.VisualBasic.CompilerServices.NewLateBinding.LateGet' is not defined.

..at Item.tValue

For asome crazy reason, you need to Cast it to Object:

	myListControl.SelectedItem = myListControl.Items.Cast(Of Object).Where(Function(x) x.tValuex.tValue.Equals("FindYou")).FirstOrDefault

Select allOpen in new window

Hi Waterside;

What is the Type of your "list control"?
 
You state the following, "The list holds objects that have tKey and tValue properties", so are you using a KeyValuePair Type? If so what is the DataType of TKey and TValue of the  KeyValuePair(Of Tkey, TValue)?

Can you post the actual line of code and the code surrounding it so we can try to make some sense for the error.

The control is a ListPicker.

The ItemsSource is List(of KeyValuePair(of Integer, String)

I need to set the SelectedItem KVP object for a given key or value.

that's got it :)

Excellent, glad it worked out for you.
