I know this is a very well known problem using listboxes/comboboxes.. I searched for a fix to this but no luck. How can I show:

When The listbox contains more than the limit size?(32,767 I believe)

Arent integers -32767<->32767 (cant remember for sure). Anyway there are custom listbox controls out there who can have more, or just switch to vb.net (you won't have that prob again).

Bub

Yeah once intergers hit 32,767 they go negative until -32767 then go positive again(I believe).. ect

Taco-King

Yes, but sometimes if you make it work correct or do some shit like me anyother value lets say b will = 0. And the a will = -32767

The listbox has this problem because its based on integers and integers can only handle like 32k. If you had to use a long then you would be able to handle a lot more than an integer so all you gotta do is find a listbox on pscode.com such as eList or some shit that is based on a long, or a double index.

Or switch to vb.net :p

max value of a 32 bit integer is 2,147,483,647

i dont know if vb6 max value is the same as a 16bit integer or 32 bit integer in .net

anyway in vb6 im sure there are pre made user components which function better than listbox. Also i have strong faith in you that you can make one its not so hard..

but if you cant look on vbforums codebank or just use google u will find many vb6 listbox components that are better than the given vb6 listbox.

also i dont know if this will work (i highly doubt it) but hell its worth a shot:
Label1.Caption = CLNG(List1.Listcount)

also try Label1.Caption = CSTR(CLNG(List1.Listcount))

if both dont work than what you need is a listbox control where the property listbox.count is a long, not an integer.

i checked the max value of a 16bit integer is 32767 so yeah i guess vb6 integer is inherently 16bit.

This is due to the fact of micronoobs setting Indexes to base on integers. Integers can only hold up to like 32k of numbers were is a long can hold a hell of a lot more. So the controls you will find will be based on 'Longs', which is why they can hold lot's more. I suggest extList control.
