Save the state of an editable listbox

Avatar

Level 2

I created a listbox that has a number of elements in it and then I created "Up" and "Down" arrows to allow the user to move the elements within the listbox to specify the order they want. The problem I have is when I save the document the state of the list box is not preserved. Below is the code I used to save allow the user to move the elements up or down. Please let me know if it is possible to save the state or if I have to find another solution to this requirement.

try

{

if(ListBox1.selectedIndex>0)

{

var selectedItem  = ListBox1.items.nodes.item(ListBox1.selectedIndex)

ListBox1.items.nodes.insert(selectedItem,ListBox1.items.nodes.item(ListBox1.selectedIndex-1))

}

}catch(e)

{

app.alert(e+'');

}

Usually by checking the setting to Automatically for the option "Preserve Scripting changes to form when Saved"  in the Form Properties and Default Tab.
