ListBox From SQL Shows Top Entry Selected

I have a form which uses a sql statement to generate a list box. But during runtime, the top entry of the list box is selected by default.

 

How do I remove this selected item? If the user does not want to select anything from that particular listbox, the default top entry comes through as selected.

  By default the first item is always selected.

   

  If the selection mode is single, the user can select a different item.

   

  If the selection mode is multiple, the user can click on the first item to deselect it.

   

  If the selection mode is extended, the user can ctrl+click on the first item to deselect it.

   

  You can also add an extra (first) item to your listbox and label it as "No selection" or something like that.

  Nico and Walter, this is great - for an ArcGIS Server Feature Service based listbox, it appears that the first item isn't automatically selected, but when one does so based on a DataItem list, the first item is selected.  Do you know how to get the listboxes to behave in the same manner (i.e. neither has anything automatically selected"

  As far as I know the first item is always selected.
