Hi

I have bound my listbox to a dataset. But when I select multiple choices from the listbox, when I again come back to that list box the selected items are lost

I have 2 tabs. One has bounded listbox, so when I select multiple items and then go to the other tab and then came back to the first one the selected items are lost

Pl help
 
To populate a multi-select, you end up having to loop through data. You
should not have to do this if you are simply returning to a form from a
submit within that form (ViewState should handle that), but is a very real
issue when binding data to a listbox. The multi-select is normally bound to
a separate table, so simply loop through that table to set the SelectedValue
+= the value of the var in the loop.
