Move listbox items


Visual Basic 6, or VB Classic

I was asked how to move items in a listbox up and down, to place then in any order of my choice.
Here's one way of doing it. You need two buttons, I named them 'buttonUp' and 'buttonDown', and ofcourse a listbox named 'List1'. Then all you have to do is select the item you wish to move, and press the up or down button. Great for playlists.

Code


Private Sub buttonDown_Click()
Dim nItem As Integer
With list1
If .ListIndex < 0 Then Exit Sub
nItem = .ListIndex
If nItem = .ListCount - 1 Then Exit Sub
.AddItem .Text, nItem + 2
.RemoveItem nItem
.Selected(nItem + 1) = True
End With
End Sub

Private Sub ButtonUp_Click()
Dim nItem As Integer
With list1
If .ListIndex < 0 Then Exit Sub
nItem = .ListIndex
If nItem = 0 Then Exit Sub
.AddItem .Text, nItem - 1
.RemoveItem nItem + 1
.Selected(nItem - 1) = True
End With
End Sub
