Object: ChnListBox

The ChnListBox object corresponds to the ChnListBox control in a user dialog box. You use the ChnListBox object to define a channel selection list to display in the user dialog box. The user dialog box takes the displayed selection terms from the Data Portal. The channels currently loaded in DIAdem appear in the channel selection list in channel number order.

If you drag a channel from the Data Portal to the channel selection list, you select this channel in the channel selection list. If you drag a channel group to the channel selection list, you select the first channel in this channel group. If you drag the data set from the Data Portal to the channel selection list, you select the first channel of the data set.

If the property SelectionMode=1-MultiSelection is set for the channel selection list and you drag several channels from the Data Portal to the channel selection list, the selection list applies the same selection order as the Data Portal. If you drag a channel group to the channel selection list, you select all the channels in this channel group. The same applies if you drag the data set to the channel selection list.

The user dialog box determines the contents of the channel selection list when the dialog box opens. Use the Refresh method to update the channel selection list while the dialog box is executed.

The following example specifies that the ChnListBox1 channel selection list only displays the channel name:

ChnListBox1.Syntax = 5 'channelname only
