ListView_DeleteItem...Doesn't

[George Bleck]

Is there any trick to deleting an item from a ListView?

I know I'm passing it a valid index number but the function always returns zero (failed).

Here's the sub routine...

SUB EntryDelete( BYVAL hDlg AS DWORD )
	LOCAL hlvPrinters AS LONG
	LOCAL lngIndex AS LONG
	CONTROL HANDLE hDlg, %lvPrinters TO hlvPrinters
	lngIndex = ListView_GetNextItem( hlvPrinters, - 1, %LVNI_SELECTED )

	IF lngIndex < > - 1 THEN

		IF MessageBox( hDlg, "Are you sure you wish to delete the highlighted entry?", "Title Message", %MB_YESNO OR %MB_ICONQUESTION OR %MB_DEFBUTTON2 ) = %IDYES THEN
			listview_deleteitem  hDlg, lngIndex
		END IF

	END IF

END SUB

Er, George,

You are supposed to pass the listview Handle as a parameter...

listview_deleteitem hDlg, lngIndex

At a quick glance, this code is wrong!

Or am I missing something?

DUH, I knew there was another reason why I grabbed the handle besides look for the current highlighted item.

Thanks for the second set of eyes!
