how do I retrieve a multicolumn cell value.

[punkmonkey]

I'm filling a multicolumn list box for user selection from a dataset. I can return the selected row number, but the row number does not necessarily match the value of the cell that I need to query against.

Is there anything like an active cell text property?

In LabVIEW you can use invoke node "Point to row Column". In the attached example, the string indocator shows the text of the element where a mouse-down happened.

Thanx. That will do nicely.

I forgot to mention that this is LabVIEW 8.0 only.
