Remarks

The ListView control raises the SelectedIndexChanging event when a Select button is clicked, but before the ListView control handles the select operation. (A Select a button is one whose CommandName property is set to "Select".) This enables you to provide an event-handling method that performs a custom routine whenever this event occurs, such as canceling the select operation.

A ListViewSelectEventArgs object is passed to the event-handling method, which enables you to determine the index of the item that is selected by the user. It also enables you to cancel the select operation. To cancel the select operation, set the Cancel property of the ListViewSelectEventArgs object to true.

For a list of initial property values for an instance of the ListViewSelectEventArgs class, see the ListViewSelectEventArgs constructor.
