Listbox first item getting disabled automatically

[shantanu@india]

Hi,

I am populating a listbox from an excel sheet using 'itemnames' property node.

The items in the listbox are appearing OK , but the first item(index 0) seems to be greyed out & cannot be selected.

What can be the issue?

Thanks.

hi and welcome to the forum.

it is unfortunately hard to just guess what your problem might be.

please have a look at this short intro (https://forums.ni.com/t5/Community-Documents/Unofficial-Forum-Rules-and-Guidelines/ta-p/3536495)

and then try to fill out your post a little more.

Sorry for the late reply.

I am populating the list box by the following subVI code:

The name_array terminal of the subVI is connected to  'item names' property node of the list box.

All the 90 items are appearing in the list box but the first item(Item 0) cannot be selected as it is never highlighted by the cursor.

Post a VI where the data is saved into the listbox by default.

That's just a picture. We cannot run that, look at the front panel, or even see what's in the other cases. I also don't see any "listbox" anywhere. How exactly is this related to the original question? (There are also some weird things: No need to close that reference and you should use path operations (build path, etc.) instead of operating on paths as strings)

Please attach your actual VI containing the listbox!
