Capturing A Double-click On A ListView Item
How would I go about detecting double clicks on ListView items? I've looked at the DblClick, ItemClick and Mousedown events, but it seems the only way I can effectively do it is detect a single click and then use a timer with a short interval and wait to see if another click event occurs within the interval (very long-winded, in other words). Come on, Windows uses it all the time, there HAS to be an easier way...

Right Click For Popup Menu, But Select The Item Right Clicked Upon [List Box]
Hi,
  I have a list box which holds several list items (logs). I want to right click on the individual list items and select them (which only works with left click) and then show a popup menu.
  The list item must be selected because the popup menu would have commands specific to the 1 file. E.g. delete log

 How do I accomplish this?

Thanks in advance

Tell Which Item Clicked In Listview...but Theres A Catch!
Please, is there a way to get the item clicked in a listview in report mode BEFORE the click is complete?

Ie when the mousedown event is raised, how can i know which item is clicked?

If you happen to know an easy way of dragging items around inside a listview (ie drag & drop to change the order) this may help, too.

I was gonna use the mousedown to save the item selected into a a variable then the OLE drag complete event to copy the data to the new location.

you`d think this would be easy...and maybe it is!

Hope you can help

Double Click On Select Item In A Grid
Hello,

I have a vb form that contains two tabs. The first tab contains combo boxes to display items from an access database. The second tab I'm displaying a list of folders like a tree structure. Similar like window explorer does. My problem is that when I click to the select the folder and then double click anywhere else in the form grid the folder open. The folder should only open when the folder has the focus and the double click. Any ideas or sample code to prevent this from occurring.

Thanks.

Single-click Vs. Double-click On Listview
Hey gang, can you help me on this one?
In my listview, if the user clicks an item, I basically don't want to do anything (the item that they clicked will be the current "SelectedItem" which can be used when needed).
However, if they double-click an item, I want that to act as a "shortcut" to an Update command.

Bottom line - how do I manage both single and double-click events?

Click Item In Listview Then Show That Item In Combo As Index = 0
Hi guys,

I have a listview (lvwUserPunchedOut) that is populated with records in a database (persons first name in one column and last name in the second column), what I am looking to do is if I select a persons name by clicking on it in the listview on frmMain, and then bring up frmSearchCriteria, i would like to show that selected name in the combobox as default (cboEmployee.ListIndex = 0) on frmSearchCriteria (the combobox is sorted = True and is also populated with first name and last name of the person)

How would this be done? Hope I make sense. Thanks in advance.

Double Clicking A ListView Selected Item
I have a listview control that lists movies available in my db. I want to code the double click event so that when i doubleclick a selected item, it opens another window that displays the details of the selected movie. The main challenge I have is, I have a listcontrol that stores the actors in this particular movie (more than 1 actor per movie) so how do i display the multiple actors in this control from records in the database?

- How do i ensure that in a combobox, the item corresponding with this particular movie is the one selected eg in the cboFormat combobox which has eg dvd, vhs, vcd etc, based on the selected item, if it is a vcd, then vcd is displayed the moment i doubleclick on the item.
- same applies to an option box and checkbox.

Thanks

Listview Double-click Delete Row
Hi guys,

I have a listview with three columns.

A user may double-click a row to remove that row from the listview (and all rows below move up to take the deleted row's place).

Problem is, if the user double clicks in the empty space *below* the list items, the list item last selected is deleted!

How do I stop this behaviour?

I assume I'd have to test for validity of the double-click event but how do I test for a user double clicking the vacant area?

Thanks,

Mark

How To Load Listview Items In Browser On Double Click?

ListView, Double Click Event,populate Second Form Question.
Hi all:

I do not know how to do this, I have searched PlanetSourceCode.com for possible samples and have viewed over 150 threads on here for ListView and couldn't find anything that I could use.

This is the situation. (screen shots attached too)

I have my MySQL database attributes set as TEXT and it has six columns -- not including the id field which isnt going to be used here. (database.jpg)

When my ListView is populated, it looks like ListViewPopulated.jpg

What I am looking to do is, when you have selected a row from the ListView with the double click event, it takes the values of all three columns and places them into a select statement. With that select statement, it auto populates another form that has input fields and a drop down box. As you can see, the ListView has three of the attributes from the DB, those being of course date (BlogDate), time (BlogTime) and title (BlogTitle). I am looking to place the complete record from the database in the other form (BlogDate, BlogTime, BlogTitle, CurrentMood, BlogEntry) -- excluding Username and id. I do not know how to do this so if you can advise, it would be greatly appreciated. CurrentMood will of course be put into a drop down menu of some kind.

My ListView properties window looks like ListViewPropertiesWindow.jpg

If anyone can advise, it would be greatly appreciated.

Listview Item Click Grrrrrr!!!!!!!!!!!
Okay I have a list control on a form. I fill the list view with files and subdirectorys in a folder. Fairly straight forward

when a user clicks on a subfoder it clears the listview and then shows files and subfolders of that folder (sound familiar ) however it now has somehow activated the mousedown event on the first item in the list and as soon as you move the mouse it drags it all over the show. Then if you click to deselect it.. it fires of my click event again on the item.

How can I stop this from happening

PS I tried putting item.selected = false at the end of the code in the item click event but becuase for a subfolder it clears and refills the listview I just recieve an error

Selection Of Text In Textbox On Double Click
I'm writing a program to control an LED board in my office.

I have a textbox in which I use communication codes like <CLR RED> to indicate a change in color for a serial LED sign. After submitting the form, those codes are translated into the proper codes for the sign.

What I'd like to do is have the text box treat the <CLR RED> string as one unit. So, when a user clicks or double clicks in between the < > symbols, everything is highlighted from one symbol to the other. Right now double clicking especially messes with things, because it selects from space to space.

For example, when double clicking on "RED" in "<CLR RED>U99.5FM Radio", the textbox would automatically select from "RED" to the beginning of "Radio" instead of "<CLR RED>"

Any ideas?

Thanks!
