Would like to send @NMDBLCLK

[Bruce Peaslee]

I have a select/case setup that goes through a lot when the user double clicks on a Listview item. I also provide an "Edit" button the user can click to get the same result. I do not want to repeat all of the code and would like instead for the button to trigger a @NMDBLCLK message back to the Listview. I would have sworn I posted the solution here, but I sure cannot find it nor can I reproduce it. Does anyone have an idea of how this may be done? Thanks.

The @NMDBLCLK message to a listview passes a pointer to a structure in lparam

I'm thinking you are not really wanting to do that (I may be wrong)
Sounds to me like just what you said
the edit control and the list view need some identical code and you don't want to duplicate it

If that is the case then put all the common code in a subroutine and pass it the necessary parameters.

If  want to in deed send the @NMDBLCLK message then you can do it sort of like this:

Code Select Expand

TYPE NMITEMACTIVATE
DEF hdr:NMHDR
DEF iItem:INT
DEF iSubItem:INT
DEF uNewState:INT
DEF uOldState:INT
DEF uChanged:INT
DEF ptAction:POINTER
DEF lParam:INT
DEF uKeyFlags:INT
ENDTYPE

def lvi:NMITEMACTIVATE
'fill out the structure
....
sendmessage (w1,@NMDBLCLK ,0,lvi,lv_id

As I was falling asleep it seemed to me that a subroutine is the way, but I do want to see if I can make this work. Thanks.
