Can't get description text from list items in sysListView32 control

The application I am testing has a sysListView32 control, which I obtain with the following:




 p = Sys.Process("NXPowerLite").Popup("Results");


  ListView = p.List("Status");



I can click on each line in the list view control and obtain the description and write it to the log e.g:




File1 = Aliases.dlgResults.listStatus.listitem.Description;


Log.Message(File1);



which results in this log message:



File: C:\Automate...\Ezorder01 - Copy (4).xlsx, Original: 1.3 MB, Optimized: 1003 KB, %: 22% 10:16:08 Normal



Rather than clicking on each item individualy, I need to get all the items in the list (the size of which may not be known in advance) and write each items description to the log.



I have tried various examples in the help documentation but can't do it.



Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

    Actually, the control is a MFC CList Control



    I have tried variations of the following with no success:




    ListBox = Aliases.dlgResults.listStatus


     


     for (i = 0; i < ListBox.ChildCount; i++)


      {


        Item = ListBox.ListItem(i);


        Log.Message(Item);


      }


     


     


    It doesn't seem to matter if I use wItem, Item, wItemCount, ChildCount, it will always return a blank entry in the log for each item in the list.

    Hi Michael,



    Maybe, the problem is that you forgot Description? Try the following code:



    ListBox = Aliases.dlgResults.listStatus



    for (i = 0; i < ListBox.ChildCount; i++)

    {

      Item = ListBox.ListItem(i);

      Log.Message(Item.Description);

    }

    Hi Mike



    I'm sorry I should mentioned I tried that.  It results in "Invalid number of arguments" on the following line:



    Item = ListBox.ListItem(i);



    Thanks.

    I also tried the following:




    for (i = 0; i < ListBox.wItemCount; i++)


      {


        Item = ListBox.wItem(i)


        Log.Message(Item.Description);


      }



    but this results in a blank line for each item - no description present.  Very weird...

    Hi Michael,



    Please reproduce the problem, pack the folder containing your project suite and send me the archive within the support case you submitted. This video shows what files must be included.

    The zip archive is 76MB and is not sending.  Can I use YouSendIt to send to  

    QA-Support@SmartBear.com ?
