Win XP, Access 2002. I'm trying to solve a problem with a single column listbox that displays selected values from a table whenever
its RowSource is changed in code. If I select an item so that it is highlighted, then invoke the code to change the RowSource, the
box is refilled with no item highlighted. However, if the RowSource is then changed back to what it was when I selected the item,
this same item is still highlighted. I'd like to stop this behaviour. Each time the box is repopulated I want nothing to appear
selected. Any advice would be appreciated.

If this is not a multi-select list box, try setting the list box's value
to Null when you change its rouwsource; e.g.,

With Me.MyListbox
.Value = Null
.RowSource = <whatever>
End With
