Hi!

Just use the grid insetad of list box. If you want to make it look lik a list box, take a look to the FAQ#8092. To display images in some grid's column, do following:

1. Put an image control into the grid column.
2. Set the DynamicCurrentControl for that colum to expression like following:
thisform.UpdateImageForEachGridRow()
3. In the UpdateImageForEachGridRow methoid of the form (added as custom method), put a code to update the image picture. That code will run for each row, and changes inthe appearance o fthe Image control will be correctly displayed in the appropriate grid row. Example of such code for your case:

with thisform.MyGrid.Column1.Image1
    if Employees.Male
        .Picture = "Male.gif"
    else
        .Picture = "Female.gif"
    endif
endwith
return "Image1" && this required for correct functionality of this method as 
                && value for DynamicCurrentControl

This way you can display in grid even photo of each employee. Just store a path to bitmap in the field in Employees table, and assign that image path to the Picture property in the method that running for each row. You can use any Dynamic* property of the column for that, but keep in mind that method should return correct appropriate value for expression in chosen Dynamic* property.

HTH.

In the employees screen there was a large white area like a huge listbox? with all the employees male and female represented by the icons with their name underneath. Double clicking on an employee launched that employees details screen. This is very similiar to what I want to do...
