Extracting all elements from listbox

terrylau
terrylau over 16 years ago

I got a list box that I want to extract out all the fields in it - its a list box with OPTIONS sort. Using axlFormListGetItem() with a 0 and -1 will only get me the first and last element of the list field. How do I go about to be able to extract out all the fields? Appreciate any help as still kinda new to SKILL.

    Thanks, Chris.. it works great and helps me lots. Want to ask as I'm writing the results to a text file using fprintf (form " %L \n" tmpStr) function, it ended up something like this :

    "test1"
    "test2"
    "test3"
    nil

    How do I remove the "" signs and the last word nil as i just want the result to show :

    test1
    test2
    test3

    I've tried playing around with some of the values but can't seem to solve it... Thanks in advance.
