List item w/ multiple data items - how to select data items?

Question

I have a list component (myListBox) that is showing the
labels for some data items read in from an XML file. Each item in
the list has an associated name, description, and path (they're mp3
files) and they are named accordingly in the XML tags.
Using myListBox.selectedItem.label gives the correct label
but myListBox.selectedItem.data is undefined. I've tried using the
XML tags after the data selector (e.g.
myListBox.selectedItem.data.path) but those don't work, either. All
of the examples I've found in the docs show only a single data
element associated with each list item.
So, if a list item has multiple data items associated with
it, how do you select them using the listBox.selectedItem property?
TIA,

Q2. when I type "Oracle" in A long list item box, cursor is going to the initial character "O" , so I can find "Oracle" in A long list item box easily.Maybe , but of course your list gets smaller as you see only the entries starting with a "O" , except if there are entries in the list which all start with the letter "O" so the total number of entries in the list is equivalent to the number of entries start with "O"...!!!!!!!!!
