Selecting the first item in a ListView, then unselecting it

[c.haslam]

I have a dialog with a ListView in it. I have succeeded in getting the first item to show in reverse video, as though the user selected it:

Local $FmInDirNotProj = GUICreate("Preview: jpg's in Directory but not in Project", 560, 305, 222, 279, BitOR($WS_SYSMENU,$WS_CAPTION,$WS_POPUP,$WS_POPUPWINDOW,$WS_BORDER,$WS_CLIPSIBLINGS))
Local $btnClose = GUICtrlCreateButton("Close", 312, 256, 41, 25, 0)
Local $ListView1 = GUICtrlCreateListView("Filename|Date and time", 8, 32, 357, 214)
GUICtrlSendMsg(-1, 0x101E, 0, 190)  ; set column widths
GUICtrlSendMsg(-1, 0x101E, 1, 163)
    $qPics = UBound($nuAr,1) - 1
    Local $cidVec[$qPics+1]
    For $i = 1 To $qPics
        Local $t = $nuAr[$i][$kFnam]&"|"&$nuAr[$i][$kDatTim]
        $cidVec[$i] = GUICtrlCreateListViewItem($t,$ListView1)
    Next
    _GUICtrlListView_SetItemDropHilited ($ListView1, 0)
    While 1
        $nMsg = GUIGetMsg()
        $cidIsLVitem = False
        For $i = 1 To $qPics
            If $nMsg=$cidVec[$i] Then
                $nrow = $i
                _GUICtrlListView_SetItemDropHilited ($ListView1, 0,False)
$cidIsLVitem = True
                ExitLoop
            EndIf
        Next
        If Not $cidIsLVitem Then
            Switch $nMsg
            Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE,$btnClose
                ExitLoop
            EndSwitch
        EndIf   
Wend

The second call to _GUICtrlListView_SetItemDropHilited() is intended to deselect the first item when the user selects another item, but it doesn't work.

How do I get this to work?

Can you post something we could run?

Thanks for the heads-up.
