Hello,
I am having trouble figuring out how to move items in a listbox up and down. The listbox is loaded from a table in the Access Database. I am trying to use an "override" feature to reorder the priortiy of certain items. I cannot seem to figure out how to do this in MS Access!!. Could someone please help me out!

Thanks in Advance! :-D

So, you're programming from within Access, correct? I hated that environment!

Instead of trying to override a method, why not add a column to your table called Priority and then instead of having the combobox bound to a table, bind it to a SQL statement or query that sorts by priority. Then, when you change the priority of an item, just rebind the table.
