I would like to be able to type text in into the cells of the 1st and 2nd column of a listbox, but I can only do this in the first column with this code. Why is that?
//Make listbox cells editable
winmain.ListBoxRelations.ColumnTypeAt(0) = ListBox.CellTypes.TextField
winmain.ListBoxRelations.ColumnTypeAt(1) = ListBox.CellTypes.TextField
This allows me to edit any Cell from any Column:
Sub DoubleClick() Handles DoubleClick
//
// Allows the user to Edit the Row,Cell where the DoubleClick was done !
//
//
Var Row, Column As Integer
// Get the Row,Column where the user clicked
Row = Me.RowFromXY(gX,gY)
Column = Me.ColumnFromXY(gX,gY)
// Edit the Cell at x,y
Me.CellTypeAt(Row, Column) = ListBox.CellTypes.TextField
Me.EditCellAt(Row, Column)
EditON = True
Exception
End Sub
Are you trying to move using the Tabulator Key from Column 1 to Column 2 or are you clicking twice in Column 2? I am asking because Xojo does not automatically add the “logic” needed to tell the Listbox what should happen if you press a Key within a Cell.
I tried both, but the 2nd column cell is not clickable.
“Why are you excluding it ?”
Seriously, check where you placed code to exclude the editing for Column 1… (Comumn 1 is 2nd Column…)
I don’t have code anywhere to exclude the editing of these columns. Not sure why I would use it in this case…
Not sure too, but the code I shared comes from a running project.
Create a new Project, add a DesktopListBox, add 10 Rows/5 Columns, the code to edit and run… to be sure.
Is it possible you mix DesktopListbox and Listbox or in other Words Xojo API 1 and Xojo API 2?
And i assume you have the below Code in the Opening Event of this DesktopListbox, correct?
//Make listbox cells editable
winmain.ListBoxRelations.ColumnTypeAt(0) = DesktopListBox.CellTypes.TextField
winmain.ListBoxRelations.ColumnTypeAt(1) = DesktopListBox.CellTypes.TextField
winmain.ListBoxRelations.ColumnTypeAt(0) = DesktopListBox.CellTypes.TextField
I can’t say why this should create such an effect, but strange things can happen if you mix both API’S. 
I’ve created an empty project using Xojo 2023r4 / API2, and I am ablt-e to Edit Column 1 (2nd Column)…
So, the error is in your code / project.
I would say it’s much better so for your health. Not a lot of nutritions in a listbox cell. 
Sorry, couldn’t resist.
Editable
Ulrich was just pointing a mistype/mistake
Not sure what the error was. I also created an empty project for testing and I was able to type into the cells. I fixed to by deleting the listbox and added a new one with another name. All is well! Thanks all.
Can you please mark this Thread as solved? Thank you 
No, both were Listbox objects, not desktopLisbox. Thanks.
Done!
