Whoops....

I misunderstood you.

Code: [Select]
ListBox2.ItemIndex :=0;
ListBox2.Selected[0];
ShowMessage(ListBox2.GetSelectedText);

That's how I tried it....note my misuse of Selected[0].
I'll try again.
Thanks Taaz.

Ok, Taaz....

I tried:

Code: [Select]
ListBox2.ItemIndex :=0;
ListBox2.Selected[0] := True;
ShowMessage(ListBox2.GetSelectedText);

Which was empty.
Soooo.....is it a bug or by design?  Or am I misunderstanding something?

I think I understand the workaround now....the workarounds provided are just getting the text property of the first item in the list, which is sufficient for my needs for now.

By my logic it is a bug. I would reported it on the bug tracker and let the masters there do their magic.

No worries, its just a nick it should've been taz like the Tasmanian devil in the cartoons, but it was too short so i just added a couple of duplicate letters.
