I was trying to get the index number of the selected ListBox item. After reading the help file, I tried the following:


Unfortunately, it appears Count Focused only applies to ListViews. The help file didn't make this very clear. Maybe each command/option in the help file should have a comment like "Applies To: ListBox, ComboBox".

Just a suggestion. Thanks for a great tool.

PS: My permanent solution was to use SendMessage, 0x188. I also saw that AltSubmit could be used when creating the ListBox.

I think my dislike of verbose documentation sometimes results in confusing organization and formatting. In this case, I'll change the wording to, "All the text is retrieved from the control (that is, the ListView options above such as Count and Selected are not supported)."

Thanks.
