Hello,

I have an arraylist that loads a checkboxlist. I populate the arraylist
using a custom class and pulling the data from the web.config file. When the
checkboxlist is loaded, only the last item in the list is displayed for each
item, in other words, item #4 is displayed 4 times. My code is below.

Thanks

   Private Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
       If Not IsPostBack Then
           LoadHire()
       End If
   End Sub

   Sub LoadHire()
       Dim opts() As String =
ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings("HireSelection").Split(";")
       Dim chks As New ArrayList

       For i As Integer = 0 To opts.Length - 1
           Dim opt As New NewHire(opts(i), opts(i))
           chks.Add(opt)
       Next

       chkForHire.DataSource = chks
       chkForHire.DataBind()
   End Sub

Public Class NewHire
   Private Shared _val As String = [String].Empty
   Private Shared _text As String = [String].Empty

   Public Property DataValue1() As String
       Get
           Return _val
       End Get
       Set(ByVal Value As String)
           _val = Value
       End Set
   End Property

   Public Property DataText1() As String
       Get
           Return _text
       End Get
       Set(ByVal Value As String)
           _text = Value
       End Set
   End Property

   Public Sub New(ByVal val As String, ByVal txt As String)
       Me._val = val
       Me._text = txt
   End Sub
End Class
