Get ListViewItem Checked state by Index in VB .NET

I've been trying to commit an action based on the Checked Index of that item. I've tried a bunch of different ways and I've come up with nothing so far.

Couple of things first:

I cannot use the ListViews events. I must be able to determine the Checked state from a button's event.

Again, I need to check a specific index (0-4) and then commit an action based on that. The following is an example that I've tried. More importantly, it will give you a better idea of what I need:

If ListView1.CheckedIndices(0) = True Then
'Checked
Else
'Not checked
End If

Select Case listview1.SelectedIndex
Case 0
'something
Case 1
'something
Case 2
'something
Case 3
'something
Case 4
'something
End Select

Hawkvalley,

How does that apply at all?

For a start, if no items are checked, ListView1.CheckedIndices will return an empty collection, so you can first check that there are indeed some items checked in the listview....

If ListView1.CheckedIndices.Count > 0 Then
'there is at least 1 item checked
Else
'there are no items checked
End If

Thanks Webtubbs.

I thought I had tried something like before and it gave me an error, but it appears to be working now.

Thanks
