Dan,
I keep shouting from the mountaintops.
VariableListView!!!
I got colors, images, sorting, left and right-clik,
remember top position, etc.
In my opinion this is one of the best and most
overlooked objects in our arsenal.

Boy, I did not realize that the lookup listview was there!! I was using
the
variable lookup listbox but I definitely like the functionality of the
lookup listview.
As a comment on the multiselect it works different that the variable
lookup
listbox. The variable lookup list box you just click to select or
unselect.
The listview you use the windows select and unselect(ctrl or space keys).

I am trying to use a Variable Lookup ListView in a form to display
three columns.
-The data in these columns will never vary in length.

The problem is, I always have to leave the right side of the third
column visible inside the ListView box in order to avoid the horizontal
scroll bar.
Alex,
You can customize the look and feel of each column associated with the
Variable/DB Lookup ListView using the Column Properties.
Here's how:
Form Designer | DB/VAR Lookup ListView | Object Properties | Columns
This is where you have to customize the column name, alignment, width,
background color, and font color.
Examples:
01. Single Column ListView:

02. Multi-Column, Multi-Select ListView - Case 1:

03. Multi-Column, Multi-Select ListView - Case 2:

04. Multi-Column, Multi-Select ListView - Search Screen:

Also, I can only select (highlight) items in the list view by
right-clicking. When I left-click, they do not stay highlighted when I
release the mouse.
That is the result of the required variable NOT pre-defined or wrong data
type.
Have fun!
Very Best R:egards,
Razzak.
