Listbox customization

Altho I know this is THE self-crucification statement…but…I’m new here.
I’ve thoroughly searched this forum for answers to people’s questions on this topic and have sadly, found questions without responces.

I got my listbox to work proper after reading the quide on kirupa.com - godly work, really. Thanks for that Kirupa. But now would like to customize it, apply the setStyle() attribute, and the macromedia site gives awkward functions that dont work, and/or I’m not putting them on the right frame…I’m just lost.

Anyone who’s done this, send a link, a hint, a word to into the darkness.
Thanks,
Kabutyaga
