GUICtrlCreateListView using UP and DOWN buttons

[xinx]

I'm have a working program that displays the users in Active Directory. When a user's name is clicked on it displays their details (profile folder, work folder, etc). However, what I'd really like to do is be able to eliminate using the mouse as much as possible, so instead of having to click on each user's name, you can use the UP and DOWN arrows and it will act as though their name has been clicked on (if that makes any sense?).

Here's some of the code so far:

$ADListView = GUICtrlCreateListView("Login Name|Display Name", 140, 60, 220, 280);A ListView to display the users

; Adjust the ADListView column headers
_GUICtrlListView_SetColumnWidth($ADListView, 0, 100)
_GUICtrlListView_SetColumnWidth($ADListView, 1, 116)

Func UpdateUserList()
_AD_Open()
$SelectedUserType = GUICtrlRead($UserTypeCombo)

;Get the base OU for the user type
$SelectedUserTypeBaseOU = IniRead("iniUsers.ini", $SelectedUserType, "BaseOU", "NotFound")
;Get the filtered results from the AD using base OU
$ADData = _AD_GetObjectsInOU($SelectedUserTypeBaseOU, "(&(objectclass=user)(name=*))", 2, "sAMAccountName,distinguishedName,displayname", "displayname")
GUICtrlSetData($ADListView, $ADData)
_GUICtrlListView_DeleteAllItems($ADListView)
GUICtrlSetData($UserPropertiesEditBox, "Properties of Selected User")
$SelectedUser = ""
;For each AD user, add an item in in the ListView
For $i = 1 To UBound($ADData) - 1
GUICtrlCreateListViewItem($ADData[$i][0] & "|" & $ADData[$i][2], $ADListView)
GUICtrlSetOnEvent(-1, "ListClicked") ; For each item, add the required event
Next
_AD_Close()
EndFunc ;==>UpdateUserList

Func ListClicked()
$ItemString = GUICtrlRead(@GUI_CtrlId)
$ItemArray = StringSplit($ItemString, "|")
$SelectedUser = $ItemArray[1]
_AD_Open()
$givenName = _AD_GetObjectAttribute($SelectedUser, "givenName")
$SN = _AD_GetObjectAttribute($SelectedUser, "SN")
$displayName = _AD_GetObjectAttribute($SelectedUser, "displayName")
$profilePath = _AD_GetObjectAttribute($SelectedUser, "profilePath")
$homeDirectory = _AD_GetObjectAttribute($SelectedUser, "homeDirectory")
$homeDrive = _AD_GetObjectAttribute($SelectedUser, "homeDrive")
$GroupArray = _AD_GetUserGroups($SelectedUser)
GUICtrlSetData($UserPropertiesEditBox, "")
_GUICtrlEdit_AppendText($UserPropertiesEditBox, "Properties of Selected User")
_GUICtrlEdit_AppendText($UserPropertiesEditBox, @CRLF & @CRLF & "First Name: " & $givenName)
_GUICtrlEdit_AppendText($UserPropertiesEditBox, @CRLF & @CRLF & "Last Name: " & $SN)
_GUICtrlEdit_AppendText($UserPropertiesEditBox, @CRLF & @CRLF & "Login Name: " & $SelectedUser)
_GUICtrlEdit_AppendText($UserPropertiesEditBox, @CRLF & @CRLF & "Profile Directory: " & $profilePath)
_GUICtrlEdit_AppendText($UserPropertiesEditBox, @CRLF & @CRLF & "Home Directory: " & $homeDirectory & " (" & $homeDrive & ")")
_GUICtrlEdit_AppendText($UserPropertiesEditBox, @CRLF & @CRLF & "Group Membership:")
For $i = 1 To UBound($GroupArray) - 1
_GUICtrlEdit_AppendText($UserPropertiesEditBox, @CRLF & _AD_FQDNToDisplayname($GroupArray[$i]))
Next

_AD_Close()
EndFunc ;==>ListClicked

Any help would be great, thank you!

P.s. I suspect it needs to be something in the

;For each AD user, add an item in in the ListView
For $i = 1 To UBound($ADData) - 1
GUICtrlCreateListViewItem($ADData[$i][0] & "|" & $ADData[$i][2], $ADListView)
GUICtrlSetOnEvent(-1, "ListClicked") ; For each item, add the required event
Next

So that when the UP or DOWN arrows are used they GUICtrlSetOnEvent(-1, "ListClicked") - I just can't seem to find out how.

Any suggestions welcome - also if I have missed out anything that anyone needs in order to help then please let me know!

Hello, xinix. Today, I have been trying to do the same thing you are doing. It doesn't appear to be an easy thing to do. The closest I have come so far has been using _GUICtrlListView_GetSelectionMark to find the zero based index of the selected row. Then, you can use _GUICtrlListView_InsertItem to insert an item. Note that it does not insert multiple columns. Using the separator "|" does not split your data. Lastly, you can use _GUICtrlListView_DeleteItemsSelected to delete any unwanted rows.

I'm not very hopeful of an easy solution. Looking at previous solutions to small problems like editing a second column, I have seen dozens of lines of code with things I don't fully understand yet (like creating structures, calling DLLs and $WM_NOTIFY).

As easy as AutoIt is on most things, I thought there would be a _RowMoveUP and _RowMoveDown kind of function. Maybe there's some technical reason why it can't be done so easily.

Hi abberration

Thank you - I thought I was missing something obvious but at least I know it's not and that others have had similar issues. Sad though :-(

All the best
