[RESOLVED] Setting Focus on the last item in the listview

[sufyaaan]

Hi

How can I set the focus on the last item in the listview control?

item.selected=true doesnt set it focused.

[leinad31]

listview1.listitems(listview1.listitems.count).selected = true

[sufyaaan]

listview1.listitems(listview1.listitems.count).selected = true

not working... while the listview is being populated.

does the listview have the focus? If you want the selected item to be highlighted even when listview loses focus.

ListView1.HideSelection = False

If your listview is set to muliselection then you'll have to use EnsureVisible

And if its while being populated, then set the listitem's Selected property and call ensurevisible just after being added.

Use this syntax so you have a reference, in this case lstNew holds the reference to the just added listitem

Dim lstNew As ListItem
 
   Set lstNew = ListView1.ListItems.Add
   lstNew.Text = "Test"
   lstNew.Selected = True
   lstNew.EnsureVisible

eh? check everything... are you sure the listview is enabled? are you sure it can receive focus (on the active form), or you can select items with clicks? are you sure you don't have code elsewhere that's setting selected = false and setting listview1.selecteditem = nothing?

and post the code for populating it.
