ok
on vb6 list boxes have an index so you can refer to an item delphi 7 doesnt

procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);
begin
mediaplayer1.FileName := listbox1.Items;
mediaplayer1.Open;
Mediaplayer1.Play;

end;

a list box i made contains 1 item (the path and filename to a song)
i want this filename property of mediaplayer1 to equal this item. does anyone know why this doesnt happen with my code

Delphi 7 does.

ListBox1.Items[index]

will return the value.

or to get the selected item

ListBox1.ItemIndex;

To get the string:

ListBox1.Items[ListBox1.ItemIndex];

@Frobscottle

Have a look at the EndPos and Position properties

@Toady

Good alternative idea - but why oh why did you use the name "Home Software"?

VB6 isn't really a proper compiler. In the strict sense of the word it does create machine code, however it uses the runtime lib. for the most basic of tasks.

The Object part of Delphi is pretty easy to get to grips with. The only real problem for DLL developers is knowing the Delphi equivilent of certain types in C++.
