Let's say I have a list box (ListBox1) with 2 values (Test1 and Test2) with multi-select off. It is currently showing "Test2". I know how to know what it is set to and use that elsewhere in scripting. What I haven't figured out though is how to set that list box to another value in the script. Let's say I want a button that will set that list box mentioned above to the value of "Test1". How could I do this? I think an example of the script for that simple thing would help me with things where I might need to do something like this.

Hey James. Here is a quick example that I hope gets you going in the right direction.

       public void Thing1_OnClick(object sender, EventArgs eventArgs)
       {
           ListBox1.SelectedItems = new string[] {"Pick thing 1"};
       }

public void Thing2_OnClick(object sender, EventArgs eventArgs)
       {
           ListBox1.SelectedItems = new string[] {"Pick thing 2"};
       }
