How to get ListView Cell

[JusGellin]

Is there a better way to select and get the value from a row in listview? I added the red text part to the Help example? It gives me the whole row separated by "|". I can work with that, but I would like to learn the best technique to do this. I did a lot of searching, but didn't seem to find the answers.

1. How could I retrieve just the value from one cell in the selected row - say I only wanted the column 2 cell value. Is there an index, column values I could retrieve and then directely get the cell value?

2. Is looking for any msg value > 0 the best way to flag when a row in the list view is selected?

I want to become more effective in this.

Thanks.

GUICreate("listview items", 220, 250, 100, 200, -1, $WS_EX_ACCEPTFILES)
GUISetBkColor(0x00E0FFFF) ; will change background color

$listview = GUICtrlCreateListView("col1  |col2|col3  ", 10, 10, 200, 150);,$LVS_SORTDESCENDING)
$button = GUICtrlCreateButton("Value?", 75, 170, 70, 20)
$item1 = GUICtrlCreateListViewItem("item2|col22|col23", $listview)
$item2 = GUICtrlCreateListViewItem("item1|col12|col13", $listview)
$item3 = GUICtrlCreateListViewItem("item3|col32|col33", $listview)
$input1 = GUICtrlCreateInput("", 20, 200, 150)
GUICtrlSetState(-1, $GUI_DROPACCEPTED)  ; to allow drag and dropping
GUISetState()
GUICtrlSetData($item2, "ITEM1")
GUICtrlSetData($item3, "||COL33")
GUICtrlDelete($item1)

Do
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()
    
    Select
        Case $msg = $button
            MsgBox(0, "listview item", GUICtrlRead(GUICtrlRead($listview)), 2)
        Case $msg = $listview
            MsgBox(0, "listview", "clicked=" & GUICtrlGetState($listview), 2)
    [color="#FF0000"]   Case $msg > 0
            ConsoleWrite(GUICtrlRead(GUICtrlRead($ListView)) & @CRLF)[/color]
    EndSelect
Until $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE

I looked further in the Help file and found an answer to my #1 question. I can do the following to get column 1 item selected:

$a = _GUICtrlListView_GetItemTextArray($listview,-1)
         ConsoleWrite("Column 1 selected = " & $a[1] & @CRLF)

But, is there a better way to get a selection clicked then just looking for anything >0? Is there any way to specifically get the listview event for any rows? I would like to do something more specific than

Case $msg > 0.

Do
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()
    
    Select
        Case $msg = $button
            MsgBox(0, "listview item", GUICtrlRead(GUICtrlRead($listview)), 2)
        Case $msg = $listview
            MsgBox(0, "listview", "clicked=" & GUICtrlGetState($listview), 2)
        Case $msg > 0
            $a = _GUICtrlListView_GetItemTextArray($listview,-1)
            $b = $a[1]
            ConsoleWrite("$b=" & $b & @CRLF)
    EndSelect
Until $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE

Thanks, I see that.

But how can I track events when I click on a row in a list view? I know using case msg >0 works, but is there somethine more specific to get the event for a listview row?

Thanks again.
