I have a list that I would like to prevent selection in. It's a list of items to view and it simply doesn't make sense for the user to "select" one. I think they'd find it confusing, expecting something to happen with the selected item.
Anyone have any suggestions? I could catch the lstSelectEvent and deselect it, but the selection would show while the pen was down. I could eat the penDown event, but then they couldn't click the scroll buttons. I could make an educated guess as to where the scroll buttons are and eat the penDown event only if it didn't seem to be on one of the buttons, but that seems fraught with peril. I could write my own list control, but that seems like a fair amount of effort for something that should be trivial. It happens to be an owner-draw dynamically created list if that helps. It's a list because I didn't see a good way to dynamically create a table (and I don't think it would be any easier to prevent selection in a table anyway).
