do a search for

listview popupmenu

1. you basically create a menu
2. put some code in the mousedown event that checks to see if the right mouse was clicked (button = 2)
3. use the me.popupmenu method to show a menu that you created somewhere.

If you can't find it, I'll give you some sample code.

don't forget that you can use the X and Y pos to HitTest and get the selected list item

Make a menu ("like File Edit..etc") but dont make it visible, and then use the code below

Private Sub ListView1_MouseUp(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
    If Button = vbRightButton Then
        popUpMenu mnuFile 'opens File menu when u right click
    End If
End Sub
