Another ListBox question

[Bruce]

What if an item in a ListBox represented both a zip file and an image? How would I go about unzipping on double click and loading and viewing the image file on select? Is there a way to tell it (ListBox) where to find both and what to do with them?

Thx

Hi. OK, you know how to attach an action to an item in the listbox right? It's just as easy to add 2-3 actions as one...

Break down the task into smaller parts Bruce then it's easy, i.e.:

1. Create a listbox.
2. Attach a simple action to one of the items.
3. Test it.
4. Remove test action.
5. Attach an action to load the image object.
6. Test it. Repeat step 5 as needed.
7. In the same place you attached the image load action extend the code to unzip your file.
8. Test it. Repeat step 7 as needed.
9. Have a sandwich.

If step 9 were "Have Donuts" Homer would be happy.
