>Is there a simple way to change the color property of selected items in a listbox? In other words, all items are blue and I want to turn items #3, 4 and 7 to red. Can this be done?

But, it doesn't work in the sense that the subscript is ignored and the color is applied to all list members.

John,

Setting individual list item forecolors works only if your rowsourcetype is 0 and your items are added with AddItem(). (It may also work with rowsourcetype 1 -- but I have not tried i -- but it should)

If your rowsourcetype is an array, cursor etc, then setting any item's forecolor sets the forecolor of all of the items.
