Functions in LBAPI.ocx.
---------------------------------------------------------
ListDrives (List Drives)
Adds all the drive letters on the system to the list
specified in alphabetical order.
E.g.
LBAPI.ListDrives List1
---------------------------------------------------------
ListEdit (List Edit)
Visual Basic does not have this list method, instead you
have to do this to edit a list item:
List1.RemoveItem 5
List1.AddItem "String", 5
LBAPI allows you to do this with one line.
E.g.
LBAPI.ListEdit List1, "String", 3 'List1 is the ListBox,
'"String" is the replace text and 3 is the list index.
---------------------------------------------------------
ListFiles/ListFolders (List Files/List Folders)
Adds all the files or folders within the folder specified
to the list specified.  The full path is used.
E.g.
LBAPI.ListFiles List1, "c:\windows\desktop"
LBAPI.ListFolders List1, "c:\windows"
---------------------------------------------------------
ListFind (List Find)
Locates a entry in a list using the string specified.
Only part of the string is necessary.  The return value
is an integer value the index of where the string is in
 the list.  If the text is not found, -1 is returned.
E.g.
MsgBox LBAPI.ListFind(List1, "Fastl") 'returns the index
'of the text "Fastlove" in List1.
---------------------------------------------------------
ListFindExact (List Find Exact)
Locates a entry in a list using the string specified.
All of the string is necessary.  The return value is an
integer value the index of where the string is in the
list.  If the text is not found, -1 is returned.

ListGetSelCount (List Get Selection Count)

E.g.
MsgBox LBAPI.ListGetSelCount(List1)
---------------------------------------------------------
ListGetTextLen (List Get Text Length)
Returns the length of the selected item in the list

ListHoriScroll (List Horizontal Scroll)
Adds a horizontal scroll bar to ListBoxes.  The Width

'with the horizontal scrollbar added.
---------------------------------------------------------
Listload/Listsave (List load/List save)
Loads all the lines from an external file into a ListBox
or saves all the lines from a ListBox to a file.  If you
use the Listsave function with an empty ListBox, an error
will occur.
E.g.
LBAPI.Listload List1, "c:\windows\tips.txt" 'the contents
'of "c:\windows\tips.txt" is now in List1.
LBAPI.Listsave List1, "c:\windows\desktop\test.txt" 'the
