>I'm using a ListBox in a form and I select one of it's item in the activate event of the form. Eventually, once the form has been loaded correctly, the user scrolls through the list and when he does, the item that was once selected is not anymore. Why is that? Why is scrolling "un-selecting" the elements in the ListBox?

Try selecting in the init event of the ListBox. It might be interesting to have a messagebox pop in the activate event of the form. That event fires for a lot of reasons. Make sure, if you are using a character ListBox.Value to select, that it has the same length as the assigned value.
