To add to David's suggestion... you may want to call EnsureVisible() on the
item as well to make sure it scolls if necessary. This off the top of my
head, but I think you can have a selected item that is no in view. A
combination of setting the selection (or just focus if you don't want to
actually select it, pluse a call to EnsureVisible() should do the trick.

I use MFC C++ 4.2. I need to do this:

I have 1 CEdit control and 1 CListCtrl with Report Style. When the FOCUS
is
on CEdit and I press UP or DOWN button, I can directly browse the record
of
CListCtrl as usual. But during the BROWSING, the FOCUS must kept at the
CEdit.

How to do this? I have tried to override the PreTranslateMessage event
handler, but I have no idea what to do when user press UP / DOWN button.

BOOL CMyDlg::PreTranslateMessage(MSG* pMsg)
{
if( GetFocus() == GetDlgItem( IDC_EDIT1 ) &&
pMsg->message == WM_KEYDOWN ){
if( pMsg->wParam == VK_UP ){
                  <WHAT TO DO>
}else if( pMsg->wParam == VK_DOWN ) ){
                  <WHAT TO DO>
}
}

return CDialog::PreTranslateMessage(pMsg);
}

Thank you very much.
