Yes I am working with the listVIEW OCX. I want to avoid row/item movement when a key is pressed.

>>I am using the Listview control and would like to stop the movement/search when a key is pressed. For example if the control has focus and I type in the letter "E" it move to items with starting with the letter E. Any ideas?

>You're post mentions "listview". If you are (indeed) using the OCX Listview then you could do it this way:

>myCustomer.DBF
>cCustKey c(10) && Populate with a SYS(2015) or company key
>cCustName c(40) && Index on this "cCustName"
>
>*In your list view, have the nodekey set to cCustKey, and the Text property
>*set to cCustName.

>*When you press the key (cKeyValue)
>set exact off
>if seek(cKeyValue,"myCustomer","cCustName")
>   cListViewNodeKey=cCustKey
>   myForm.MyListView.ItemClick(myForm.MyListView.ListItems(cListViewNodeKey))
>else
>   * Nothing on file
>endif
>set exact on
