It is a little confusing to determine what you are having a problem with. What is InputBox and what is name supposed to be? Are you getting a null reference error here? There isn't anything in the Singer array when you try and access it. Are you having trouble filling that array? Is it possible to give a little more information?

 

What is FilesList, a listbox? This might be what you are looking for -- get the index of the item selected by seeing what item is selected in FileList and add the text for that item to the LstKaraokeQue. Check out the SelectedItem property for the ListBox Class.
