Syntax 3 For ListView controls

Search for the next item relative to a specific location in
the ListView control.

ListView controls

<span>listviewname</span><span>.FindItem</span> ( <span>startindex, direction, focused, selected, <br>    cuthighlighted, drophighlighted</span> )

1	<span>listviewname</span><span>.FindItem</span> ( <span>startindex, direction, focused, selected, <br> cuthighlighted, drophighlighted</span> )

Argument	Description
listviewname	The ListView control for which you want to search for items.
startindex	The index number from which you want your search to begin.
direction	The direction in which to search. Values are: DirectionAll! DirectionUp! DirectionDown! DirectionLeft! DirectionRight!
focused	If set to true, the search looks for the next ListView item that has focus.
selected	If set to true, the search looks for the next ListView item that is selected.
cuthighlighted	If set to true, the search looks for the next ListView item that is the target of a cut operation.
drophighlighted	If set to true, the search looks for next ListView item that is the target of a drag and drop operation.

Integer. Returns the index of the item
found if it succeeds and -1 if an error occurs.

The search starts from startindex + 1
by default. If you want to search from the beginning, specify 0.

FindItem does not select the item it finds.
You must use the item’s selected property in conjunction
with FindItem to select the resulting match.

If focused, selected, cuthighlighted,
and drophighlighted are set to false, the search
finds the next item in the ListView control.

This example uses FindItem to
search from the selected ListView item:

listviewitem l_lvi

1	listviewitem l_lvi

integer li_index li_startindex

1	integer li_index li_startindex

li_startindex = lv_list.SelectedIndex()

1	li_startindex = lv_list.SelectedIndex()

li_index = lv_list.<span>FindItem</span>(li_startindex, &amp;

1	li_index = lv_list.<span>FindItem</span>(li_startindex, &

        DirectionDown!, FALSE, FALSE ,FALSE, FALSE)

1	DirectionDown!, FALSE, FALSE ,FALSE, FALSE)

IF li_index = -1 THEN

1	IF li_index = -1 THEN

        MessageBox("Error", "Item not found.")

1	MessageBox("Error", "Item not found.")

ELSE

ELSE

        lv_list.GetItem (li_index, l_lvi)

1	lv_list.GetItem (li_index, l_lvi)

        l_lvi.HasFocus = TRUE

1	l_lvi.HasFocus = TRUE

        l_lvi.Selected = TRUE

1	l_lvi.Selected = TRUE

        lv_list.SetItem(li_index,l_lvi)

1	lv_list.SetItem(li_index,l_lvi)

END IF

END IF
