Have a look at the functions in GuiListView.au3.

Have a look at the functions in GuiListView.au3.

...or perhaps the simpler GuiListBox.au3 if it's not a ListView control.

It depends of your script, but you should look at the function GUICtrlRead.

If you post the code you're working on, we can better help you

One must first realize that Jesus is not king... from there... EVERYTHING seems to make more sense.

And on post #666...how ironic.

For $i = 1 To $Search[0]

Send($Search[$i] & "{Enter}") ; Searches for words

$index = _GUICtrlListCount($Listbox) ; trying to get index

$msg = _GUICtrlListGetText ( $Listbox, $index ) ; then trying to get the list items

; then copy the list items from the external application to my listview

; do it here

Your trying to read it from an external application?

the particular mal-temperted toaster the name comes from have less to do with that number than you might imagine.

Although I wouldn't imagine the retial price of the toaster in question being much different than $6.66...that would be interesting...

@FireLord oops my mistake I mean @JesusIsKing

This will not return anything even if you have the variables correct:

For $i = 1 To $Search[0]
Send($Search[$i] & "{Enter}") ; Searches for words
$index = _GUICtrlListCount($Listbox) ; trying to get index
$msg = _GUICtrlListGetText ( $Listbox, $index ) ; then trying to get the list items
; then copy the list items from the external application to my listview
;#######
; do it here
;#######

Since $index = _GUICtrlListCount($Listbox) will return the amount of items in the listbox..

$msg = _GUICtrlListGetText ( $Listbox, $index ) is working with a Zero based index

So if your count is lets say 5

Then the Index of the last item in the list is index 4.

Cheers
