Hi

Iam trying to select items from a list.
I created the list using the following code.

MyList= new ObjectListField();
MyList.set(myarray);
Add(MyList);

My problem is how do I select the items in mylist. Thank you in advance.

i assume you have the list displayed on the screen and are contempt with that?

there is no direct accessor method in the API, usually you use navigationClick for it.
use getSelectedIndex to retrieve the index of the clicked object, and get the object from your array.

ListField does not generate events on clicks, which is typically what you want to get a selection.  This code might help:

then you can, in your change listener, use the getSelectedIndex to find out which of your entries was in focus. 

Hopefully that will get you going.
