I am using C/C++ and straight Win32 (no MFC, ATL, ...). I have a
ListView. When I try to select an item programmatically, the
selection is not visible. I use the following code:
ListView_SetItemState( hWnd, nChoice, LVIS_SELECTED |
LVIS_FOCUSED, 0x000F );
ASSERT( ListView_GetItemState( hWnd, nChoice, LVIS_SELECTED )
Neither ASSERT triggers. Also, when I change a column width (by
dragging a header, not programmaticaly), the selection becomes
visible. So I think the code above is correct, but not sufficient.

I'm using VC 6 and Windows NT 4 SP 5. Also, the only styles I specify
for the ListView are LVS_REPORT | LVS_SINGLESEL. I've tried not using
LVS_SINGLESEL. I develop primarily for Windows CE, so any solution
must work under it (them?), but I don't think that will be a real
issue in this case.

Thank you.

That's because the item is selected.
Add this style to your list view LVS_SHOWSELALWAYS

Sure enough, I _had_ missed the obvious. Thank you.
