Hittest on listbox?

Hi all,

I'm trying to correct the (imho) wrong behaviour of a listbox when the user
right-clicks on an item. I would like the selection to change when this
happens, just like when the user uses the left mouse button.
Most multi-item controls seem to have the hittest method, but in the
documentation of the listbox I can't find it.

Does anyone know how to do this?

Tia,
Martin

Brilliant! Thanks a lot.
