Hello All
I have a ListView with MultiSelect=False.
I found that SelectedIndexChanged event for ListViews raised twice for each selection except firs selection.
Firs for unselecting the selected item and Second for selecting the new item. So I should put the folowing code in SelectedIndexChanged event to prevent some excpetions when there is no item selected:

Code:
If ListView1.SelectedItems.Count = 0 Then Exit Sub
Next , I have 3 items in my listview and i want to change the selection to "Item 3" when "Item 1" have selected.So I have putted the following codes in SelectedIndexChanged event:

Code:
        MsgBox(ListView1.SelectedItems(0).Text)
        If ListView1.SelectedItems(0).Index = 0 Then
            ListView1.Items(2).Selected = True
        End If
As you see, I have added a message box that shows the selected item text.
Now, What is the BUG?
When I select "Item 1" (index=0) , it should show "Item 1" , then select "Item 3" (index=2) and show "Item 3", But this will occur twice ?! ( 4 MessageBox ) ! Why?

This is the complete code :


Code:
Public Class frmListViewTest
    Inherits System.Windows.Forms.Form

#Region " Windows Form Designer generated code "

    Public Sub New()
        MyBase.New()

        'This call is required by the Windows Form Designer.
        InitializeComponent()

        'Add any initialization after the InitializeComponent() call

    End Sub

    'Form overrides dispose to clean up the component list.
    Protected Overloads Overrides Sub Dispose(ByVal disposing As Boolean)
        If disposing Then
            If Not (components Is Nothing) Then
                components.Dispose()
            End If
        End If
        MyBase.Dispose(disposing)
    End Sub

    Private components As System.ComponentModel.IContainer
