context menu creation on listview

[AustrianOak]

Switch $nWndFrom
        Case $nWndListView
            Switch $iCode
                Case $NM_RCLICK
                    Local $tInfo = DllStructCreate($tagNMITEMACTIVATE, $lParam)
                    Local $iIndex = DllStructGetData($tInfo, "Index")
                    If $iIndex <> -1 Then _ContextMenu($iIndex)

My code looks like this and what it does is it calls a function that creates a a context menu that says 'whatever'

What if I want to add another context menu when I right click? Would it be like this?

Switch $nWndFrom
        Case $nWndListView
            Switch $iCode
                Case $NM_RCLICK
                    Local $tInfo = DllStructCreate($tagNMITEMACTIVATE, $lParam)
                    Local $iIndex = DllStructGetData($tInfo, "Index")
                    If $iIndex <> -1 Then _ContextMenu($iIndex)

                    Local $iInfo = DllStructCreate($tagNMITEMACTIVATE, $lParam)
                    Local $zIndex = DllStructGetData($iInfo, "Index")
                    If $zIndex <> -1 Then _ContextMenu2($zIndex)

I tried this above and the second context menu only appears if I right click twice. Any advice?

Have you taken a look at the GUICtrlCreateContextMenu() function? I'm not sure if you're dealing with an AutoIt GUI or not, but if you are then you can create GUI or control specific context menus with this built-in function.

I know about that function but that's not exactly what I'm looking for...

I'm just having a general problem with a context menu being in some sort of loop i guess..
