Control functions with partial support
- FindItem � in Web Forms applications, the FindItem function is supported for all list box controls and the TreeView control. The syntax for finding an item by its label is also fully supported for the ListView control. However, the syntax for finding an item by its relative position in a ListView control is only partially supported. In Web Forms applications, the cuthighlighted and drophighlighted arguments are not supported, and DirectionAll! is the only supported value for the direction argument.
