Remove multiple items from a Listbox

[BioHazard]

As straightforward as this task might seem, I actually had a devil of a time trying to figure it out. Have in the past, been coding this one via a simple table iteration, not realizing that it was in fact deleting the wrong items from the Listbox. Could not for the life of me, work out why?

And then finally realized, it just needed a do/while count-loop instead (Example attached).
D'oh! Don't ya just love missing the obvious?

Finding the simple and the obvious solution is more complicated sometimes than the complicated solution , i think i had just complicated my sentence.

Good you solved it as usual , keep forward

Additionally, you could also use a for loop, which is cleaner in my honest opinion

local tSelected = ListBox.GetSelected("ListBox1"); -- gets selected indexes from the ListBox, and stores in table
if tSelected then -- ensures something is selected
    -- from the # of items in tSelected to 1, step -1 do
    for i = #tSelected, 1, -1 do 
        ListBox.DeleteItem("ListBox1", tSelected[i]);
    end 
end

Hello Bio and IP.. thanks for all your ideas...

for i = #tSelected, 1, -1 do

I so like it when you drop by, IP.

i am not here every day but I come back at lest once a week, the place we used to have might be gone but I know I enjoyed it and maybe one day these new little devs will bring it back.

Hey, Rexxy - you're back! Was starting to worry we'd lost you over to the dark side. I agree, circa 2009-2011 was a fun time when this board was always lit up with both great chatter and great code.

And now, so many have gone MIA: Rizla, reteset, Sakuya, Centauri Soldier, T3STY, Worm - the list goes on. And is passed time a rescue mission was mounted for our missing brothers - is not quite the same without them!

But after 'arising from the dead' so to speak, I have to say, I'm very happy to see both you and IP are still here after all these years. Here's to the both of ya', my brothers!
