Send keys to the selected item in listview control

[Romeo1998]

Dear friends and respected seniors,

                                I am trying to send keys to the selected item in a listview control in a window, but with no success.   I know I am making some mistake, but I am not able to figure it out. 

This is the code I am using

; get window's handle
Local $a = WinGetHandle( "My Program" )

; set focus on that window
 WinActivate($a);

; get the listview control's handle which is in that window
Local $b = ControlGetHandle($a,"",2111)

; set focus on that listview control
ControlFocus($a,"",2111);

; clear all selections on that listview control
ControlListView($a,"",$b,"SelectClear");
sleep(1000);

; select second item from that listview control
ControlListView($a,"",$b,"Select", 1 )
sleep(1000);

; send the ENTER key to that selected item in listview control
send("{Enter}")  ; not working
; OR
ControlSend($a,"",$b,"{ENTER}")  ; not working

Can anyone please kindly guide me and help me with this problem. 
Awaiting your replies, 
Thank you.

I would suggest you use one of the many _GUICtrlListView_ items instead of ControlListView

Something like this usually works for me:

ControlListView($hWnd, "", "SysListView321", "Select", $k, $k)
ControlClick($hWnd, "", "[CLASS:Button; INSTANCE:1]")

Really i think you should check the control id. Try this "SysListView321"

What does it show as the ID with the info tool?

Thanks Careca, 

I tried ur code, but it still clicks random items from the list, n not the one that i select programmatically 

the control id is 2111

 

this is the code that i tried now

;selecting the 2nd item from the list
ControlListView($a, "", "[CLASS:SysListView32; INSTANCE:1]", "Select", 1)

;but this double clicks a random item from the list :(
ControlClick($a, "", 2111,"left",2)

It seems that i will have to create a GUI 

[careca]

can we reproduce the issue somewhere?

note that i posted

"Select", $k, $k)

because select can take 2 optional params.

and

SysListView321

not 32. try without instance 1 and with 321 instead of 32.

Thanks Careca, 

I tried syslistview32 but it didnt work , so i used SysListView323 as the autoit tool was showing ClassnameNN: SysListView323

this is the code that i tried now

;working :)
;selecting the 1st item from the list
ControlListView($a, "", "SysListView323", "Select", 0,0)


Sleep(2000)


; not working :|
; but these 2 codes still double click a random item from the list and not the one selected by the above code

ControlClick($a, "", "SysListView323","left",2)

; OR

ControlClick($a, "", 2111,"left",2)

I will try to make a GUI
