Hi people

I've just tried to run the following code in VB 6 ...


Private Sub_Form_Load()
With lstMonth
..AddItem "January" 'Items cannot be added at design time
..AddItem "February" ' must be added at run time
..AddItem "March"
..AddItem "April"
..AddItem "May"
..AddItem "June"
..AddItem "July"
..AddItem "August"
..AddItem "September"
..AddItem "October"
..AddItem "November"
..AddItem "December"
..ListIndex = 0 'set default selected month to January
End With
End Sub


In an attempt to add items to a list box named "lstMonth".


When I try to run the procedure, I get "invalid outside procedure" as
the message. Can anyone suggest what I'm doing wrong, or is this some
sort of strange run time error?


The curious thing is that when I ran a test as follows:


Private Sub_Form_Load()


lstNames.AddItem "Joe Bloggs"


End Sub


for a list box named "lstNames" it works fine.


Any ideas what is going on?


Fran

Lose the underscore between Sub and Form

Private Sub Form_Load()

The procedure is called

Private Sub Form_Load()

and not

Private Sub_Form_Load()

Yes they can. I believe the List property is what you use. I'm not
advocating that you do this--I personally always populate list boxes through
code--but I want to mention that it CAN be done at design time.

Sometimes things can be in plain sight without one seeing them
