i had an interesting method to change the label to what i wanted. i had in
the list 3 items displayed but when they selected it i didn't want all three
displayed so what i did was i assigned the get event time a variable.
normally its like 500 or something? but i changed it when they do a
selection to 5 and then did a quick update and in that update i reset the
get event time back to 500 or something. this is because the event to
change the label isn't right away and would've been a little more difficult.
unless there is a more simpler way,...... i'm listening =)
