Answer 1

I think that the problem and the solution was descripted by cody gray! I've an additional note.

Please check the focus of the specified listview item (and the control!). I could set the focus and the selection with the following lines of code :

this.listView1.Items[1].Selected = true;
this.listView1.Items[1].Focused = true;

But the focused control was a condition!
