Can't check listbox item

[Rishav]

Hi folks

I have a problem with listboxes.

I have a listbox which shows me the sheet names form a selected excel.It will show the last element selected by default.

the code I am using is;

ControlFocus("myapp", "Sheet Details:", $hwnd)
_GUICtrlListBox_SelectString($hwnd, "Sheet4", -1)
send("{SPACE}")

Problem is that the checkbox and the selection aren't tied to each other. SO I have to send an extra spacebar press to check the item. Now if I wanted to check Sheet4 item in the listbox and if its already checked, it will simply uncheck it (as spacebar is still pressed)

I need a way of finding if the item at a certain index is checked or not. Or if possible, set check or uncheck on it irrespective of its current check status.

please note that the control id is for the entire list box and I can't have the controls for each element in the listbox.

any ideas?

regards
