I don't believe you can do this with just VDS, as the message that is sent to search a listview(table), needs a pointer to a structure which is filled with the info to search for. Sounds like alot just to find an item, but you could be searching through just the first column, or one of the many sub-columns you could have, so it needs some extra info.

Here's a snippet from one of my apps where I the user clicks a Search button.

Ah, apparently @match() works for tables.. figures.
The line:"%x = @sendmsg(~table1,$1013,@index(table1),0)" isn't doing anything though.
That would be the message you would send, if you filled the structure and put its address in place of the 0 at the end, to find items instead of using @match().

Here's a full example:

Combining both of your code:

Snarling Sheep,

Your example needs more items for LVM_ENSUREVISIBLE to work.

%x = @sendmsg(~table1,$1013,@index(table1),0)

=

%x = @sendmsg(~table1,@SUM($1000,19),@index(table1),0)

LVM_ENSUREVISIBLE As Int: = @SUM($1000,19)

%x = @sendmsg(~table1,$1019,@index(table1),0) does NOT work

but

%x = @sendmsg(~table1,$1013,@index(table1),0) DOES work

Funny thing I think I may have found this in one of your posts SS Smile

Hmm.. My code used $01019.
That's odd.. Whatever works I guess Smile
