Select a new row in a listview.

Hi,

I have a listview with 1 button on my form, and the listview is connected to a database.
When I press on the button a childform appears with a textbox on it where the user
can enter text. After pressing the x-button of the childform the text of the textbox will be
written on the listview on the mainform, so a new row will be inserted into the listview.
But how can I automaticly select the new inserted row in the listview?

private void barButtonItem1_ItemClick(object sender, DevExpress.XtraBars.ItemClickEventArgs e)
{
if (frmNote.ShowDialog() == System.Windows.Forms.DialogResult.Cancel)
{
listView1.Items.Add(frmNote.textBox1.Text, 0);
//SELECT THE NEW INSERTED ROW
}
}

You can this piece of code:

ListViewItem lv = new ListViewItem(frmNote.textBox1.Text, 0);
ListView1.Items.Add(lv);
ListView1.Focus();
ListView1.SelectedItems.Clear();
ListView1.Items(ListView1.Items.Count - 1).Selected = true;
