ListDelete(LIST_CustomerList)

Syntax

ListDelete(<List Box control> [, <Element subscript>])

<List Box control>: Control name

Name of List Box (or Combo Box) control to use. If this parameter corresponds to an empty string (""), the List Box control (or Combo Box) to which the current event belongs will be used.

<Element subscript>: Optional integer

Subscript of element to delete from the List Box (or Combo Box) control. If this parameter is not specified:
in a single-selection List Box control, the current element is deleted.
in a multiselection List Box control, the selected elements are deleted.
in a Combo Box control, the current element is deleted. If this control is an editable Combo Box control, the edit control is cleared.

Remarks

Cascading deletions

When deleting a set of elements, the elements found after each deleted element are moved. To perform cascading deletions, we advise you to start from the last element.

For example:

Index is int
FOR Subscript = ListCount(LIST_CustomerList) TO 1 STEP -1
ListDelete(LIST_CustomerList, Subscript)
END

Miscellaneous

To delete an element from a Table control, use TableDelete.
ListDelete can be used on a "Combo Box" table column.
