ListView control

[James hotmail]

Hello everyone,
I am trying to use the ListView control in a smartphone app. I have some
questions from a programmer and user point of view.

1. I cursor from a textbox to the ListView and can cursor around inside the
this control, however, when I want leave, I can not. How do I cursor back to
the textbox?

2. How can I tell what entry in the ListView the user is on as they scroll?
The event SelectedIndexChanged does not have an Index changed parm.

I do not have a smartphone, only a pockepc... any help or clues would be
most appreciated!

I _think_ users can use numbers on the numeric pad to skip to
controls. I gave up trying to use a ListView in Smartphone apps. So
some of my apps are essentially unusable on Smartphones.

You can do at least some testing using the emulator, but I strongly
recommend getting a real Smartphone for testing. Find something on
eBay.

Thanks for your reply!

I know what you mean... listview does not have correct/enough events for me.

Am using the treeview with success, however the user is still trapped inside
this control?! I have utilized the left arrow to reposition the focus -
yuck.

Can't see myself ever going back to a smartphone of model. In October 6 more
htc phones are due so maybe some cheap phones will pop up on ebay.

If I find something which assists cursor focus I will update this post.
