Listbox row selection using arrow keys

General
1

I am trying to figure out how its possible to recover the row highlighted in a listbox when the up/down arrows are used to move the selected row on screen.
I wish to have the enter key or a ‘Show Data’ button to be pressed and that rows data be displayed.

this is easily done with the mouse click using X,Y coordinates but I can not see anything I can do using the controls inbuilt elements that allow finding a row from the highlighted line position.

and clues?

thanks

For API 1. ListBox.ListIndex will give you the row index.

Thank you very much Karen.

placed in the ‘KeyDown’ event using ‘Keyboard’ class I now have it doing what I required.

And yes, API 1 only.
