Using VB6, I've successfully automatically populated my datalist control from an existing database.
However, this applies for only a single field. Ideally, I wish to simultaneously display three fields, to allow the user to make his selection more convenient.

From the postings on this BBS, it seems that I may not
be able to have multiple columns in a DataList control (unlike a ListBox control).
On alternative solution is to double-click on an item
of the datalist and (somehow) have its information appear
in the textboxes I already have created. Is that possible?

 
why dont you use a datagrid control ?

or even a listbox with its height set to the height of a combobox.
 
Is this a continuation of thread222-467413?
Or a new thread with a similar question? I'm syre I answered this question earlier!
You've got me all confused again!
