Hello,
I have a listview control with bunch of entries. When the user
right-clicks on the item, I want a context menu to come up. So I
created a
ContextMenu
instance and assigned it to
ListView
.
ContextMenu
property.
The problem is that the context menu comes up regardless of whether I
right-click on the item or the empty space or the column header. I want
it only to come up when the user right-clicks on an item. How can I
control the
ContextMenu
better?

Hello,
The way I do it is to handle the AfterSelect() event of the listview item
and then determine what has been selected.
If a valid item was selected, then set the
ContextMenu
property to your
context menu otherwise you can set it to Nothing.
HTH

Hello Frank:
I think this might work for you:
'********************************************************************
Private Sub SelectItem(ByVal sender As Object, _
ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) _
Handles YourListViewName.MouseDown
Dim lvItem As
ListViewItem
lvItem = Me.YourListViewName.GetItemAt(e.X, e.Y)
If e.Button =
MouseButtons
.Right _
AndAlso Not IsNothing(lvItem) Then
Me.YourContextMenu.Show(CType(sender, ListView), _
New Point(e.X, e.Y))
End If
End Sub
'*********************************************************************
