Strange ListBox problem

I am using a listBox to display a list of items from a database. I would like to get the ID of user-selected item, so I populate the list by setting the List Source property to "users.userID,UserName". I set the width of the first column to 0 to make the userID field invisible. In the init method of the form, I initialize the list so that the first item is selected using the line (THISFORM.ListBoxUsers.Value=1). Now, when the user makes a selection, I try to read the selection by reading the variable (THISFORM.ListBoxUsers.Value). However, this is returning the index number of the selected item instead of the userID field. I tried to fix this problem by setting "Bound To" property of the list box to ".T.". This seems to work, with a strange side effect. When I run the form, the first item is not highlighted as expected. When I try to select a different item in the list, the highlight appears only when the mouse button is down, and disappears when I release the mouse button. . This happens everytime I try to select an item from the list. This problem seems to appear only when the "Bound To" property is set to ".T.". How can I fix this problem?
