List View question

[Darin]

I have a listview box in detail view with 100+ items. I can select the
50th item by lstdetail.items(49).selected=true. But, when I do that the
item is selected, but the listview box hasn't scrolled down to where
that line item is.

How do I get the listview box to scroll down to the selected items.

Darin,

The listview control has an EnsureVisible method that should do what you need.

How do I get the listview box to scroll down to the selected items.

Call the item's 'EnsureVisible' method or the 'EnsureVisible' method of the
listview control.

THanks - that worked great.

In addition to this, when the 50th element is selected, that is fine,
but the first element still has a box around it. So, if I select the
50th programmatically, then, when running the program, hit the down
arrow, it moves from element 1 to element 2, even though 50 was
selected.

I need to somehow completely un-select the first element.

My listview has the following properties:

Me.lstCode.FullRowSelect = True
Me.lstCode.Location = New System.Drawing.Point(8, 80)
Me.lstCode.MultiSelect = False
Me.lstCode.Name = "lstCode"
Me.lstCode.Size = New System.Drawing.Size(744, 208)
Me.lstCode.TabIndex = 10
Me.lstCode.View = System.Windows.Forms.View.Details
