ListBox.Click Event (Outlook Forms Script)
Occurs when the user definitively selects a value for the control that has more than one possible value.
Syntax
expression.Click
expression A variable that represents a ListBox object.
Remarks
The following are examples of actions that initiate the Click event of the specified control:
Clicking a blank area of a form or a disabled control (other than a list box) on the form.
Clicking a control with the left mouse button (left-clicking).
Pressing a control's accelerator key.
For some controls, the Click event occurs when the Value property changes. However, using the PropertyChange or CustomPropertyChange event is the preferred technique for detecting a new value for a property. The following are examples of actions that initiate the Click event due to assigning a new value to a control: selecting a value for a ListBox so that it unquestionably matches an item in the control's drop-down list. For example, if a list is not sorted, the first match for characters typed in the edit region may not be the only match in the list, so choosing such a value does not initiate the Click event. In a sorted list, you can use entry-matching to ensure that a selected value is a unique match for text the user types.
The Click event is not initiated when Value is set to Null.
Left-clicking changes the value of a control, thus it initiates the Click event. Right-clicking does not change the value of the control, so it does not initiate the Click event.
If you bind a ListBox to a field, then the Click event does not fire. You need to use the PropertyChange or CustomPropertyChange event to detect the change via code, as in the following code sample:
Sub Item_PropertyChange(ByVal Name)
Set MyListBox = Item.GetInspector.ModifiedFormPages("Message").Controls("ListBox1")
Select Case Name
Case "Mileage"
Item.CC = MyListBox.Value
Item.Subject = MyListBox.Value
Case Else
End Select
End Sub
