GUICtrlSetResizing() looks like it wants the Control ID not the Handle that _GUICtrlListView_Create makes.

You might try GetDlgCtrlID (look for it on the forum or MSDN on how to use) to return _GUICtrlListView_Create's actual ControlID.

It still may only work for standard autoit controls in the GUI Control creation Function Reference though.

Then again, there's no code to test, so I don't much feel like creating a test example myself to see if it is actually the issue or not.

I have used autoit window info tool, and no CiD is found (nothing there)

so this is way too advanced for me...

#include <GUIConstants.au3>
#include<guilistview.au3>
#include <GuiConstantsEx.au3>
$gui=GUICreate ("My gui",300,200,-1,-1,$WS_SIZEBOX+$WS_SYSMENU); start the definition

$hlistview=_GUICtrlListView_Create($gui,"I1|i2",5,5,180,180,BitOR($LVS_SHOWSELALWAYS, $LVS_REPORT,$LVS_NOSORTHEADER ))
GUICtrlSetResizing($hlistview,$GUI_DOCKRIGHT)
_GUICtrlListView_AddItem($hlistview,"Test")

GUISetState ()              ; to display the GUI

While 1
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()
    
    If $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Then ExitLoop
Wend

There's an easy solution for that... Just use GUICtrlCreateListView and if you need the handle then use GUICtrlGetHandle

Yep, your right, reverting back to Guictrlcreatelistview, and it has not probs with the large script, any thoughts on inhibiting HORIZONTAL gui resizing.
