Hi people,

I`m using Delphi 5, from way back when, and am having huge difficulties 
with a TListView.

My list of items is over 16000 and I require a procedure which with 
every item selected, adds a property from that selected items associated 
object into a stringlist. However two things seem not to work when using 
an OwnerData/OnData list.

1; When selecting a number of items using a click for the first item, 
and then holding shift and clicking on the last desired item, the 
onselectitem event is not called at all after the first click, therefore 
missing out a whole list of selected items and deselected items.

2; When the event is called for an item that has just lost its selection 
(due to another item being selected etc) the OnSelectItem event is 
called with Selcted = False but the Item object is nil.

Basically, I`m hoping somebody here is able suggest how I can get around 
this problem.

Currently, instead of just adding/removing the data for the respective 
selected/deselected items as the selection event is called, I`m having 
to go through the entire list using getnextitem and reconstructing the 
stringlist of data each time. This seems like quite an overhead with 
16000+ items (this grows monthly by 200 or so entries)

thank you for any help
