CAN you fire a doubleclick event with a right click? I though only left click would fire a doubleclick.

yes it fires, that's my problemmo it's kind of stupid to perform a default action when the user double clicks with the LEFT button, so I have to check for the button

Well it's not pretty but it works, if you can't find a proper way:

Private lastbutton As MouseButtons 'as form level variable
 
    Private Sub ListView1_DoubleClick(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles ListView1.DoubleClick
        Me.Text = lastbutton.ToString
    End Sub
 
    Private Sub ListView1_MouseUp(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) Handles ListView1.MouseUp
        lastbutton = e.Button
    End Sub

tnx but I've thought of that way already. I was thinking that there is be a better way to do this. (I ThInkZ)

Actually now that I think about it didn't you have to do the same thing in VB6 to get the right double click?

Yes but I was thinking that VB.NET can do magic and stuff, that's why I'm looking for a way
