    i did sth like this but it is not working

    So what's not working with it? You've got a lot of code there that needs to be narrowed down to just a single statement or two. Set breakpoints. Use the debugger. Step into the code to see what is going on. The first thing to try is this:

    void CSpeedDial::OnSpeedDelete()
    {
    m_speedList.DeleteItem(0);
    }

    If this works, then you know what the problem is not.

      Why don't you share with others what the resolution was?

        i just removed some of the lines from the code void CSpeedDial::OnSpeedDelete() { POSITION pos = m_speedList.GetFirstSelectedItemPosition(); int index = m_speedList.GetNextSelectedItem(pos); m_speedList.DeleteItem(index); // TODO: Add your control notification handler code here } but how can i move an item up and down in the list i am a beginner

          Which can be shortened to:

          void CSpeedDial::OnSpeedDelete()
          {
          int index = m_speedList.GetNextItem(-1, LVIS_SELECTED);
          if (index != -1)
          m_speedList.DeleteItem(index);
          }

            thanks, that code is really short and simple. I tried moving a selected item up in the list control, but it is not working. what may wrong with the code void CTestingDlg::OnUp() { int index = m_cListCtrl.GetNextItem(-1, LVIS_SELECTED); m_cListCtrl.InsertItem(index -1, m_cListCtrl.GetItemText(index, index)); m_cListCtrl.DeleteItem(index +1); // TODO: Add your control notification handler code here }

              Delete first, then insert.

                deleting it first, deletes the row as i click on the buttom i extracted my code from here. BOOL CListCtrlEx::MoveRow(int from, int to) { //Can't move to the same place, or from or to a negative index if(from == to || from < 0 || to < 0) return FALSE; //First Copy the row to the new location if(CopyRow(from, to)) { //If we have just inserted a row before //this one in the list, we need to increment //our index. if(from > to) DeleteItem(from + 1); else DeleteItem(from); return TRUE; } else return FALSE; } BOOL CListCtrlEx::CopyRow(int from, int to) { //Can't move to the same place, or from or to a negative index if(from == to || from < 0 || to < 0) return FALSE; //Copy the row to the new index InsertItem(to, GetItemText(from, 0)); //If row has been inserted before original //increment the original if(from > to) from++; //Loop through subitems for(int i = 1; i < GetColumnCount(); i++) { SetItemText(to, i, GetItemText(from, i)); } return TRUE; }

                  It's not a good idea to copy code from elsewhere unless you have a good understanding of what it is doing. If the code is doing a specific task and you copy it to a new location, its role will change.

                  void OnClickMoveUp( void )
                  {
                  int nIndex;
                  CString strCommand;

                  nIndex = m\_listctrl.GetNextItem(-1, LVNI\_SELECTED);
                  ASSERT(-1 != nIndex);
                  
                  strCommand  = m\_listctrl.GetItemText(nIndex, 0);
                  
                  m\_listctrl.DeleteItem(nIndex);
                  
                  nIndex = m\_listctrl.InsertItem(nIndex - 1, strCommand);
                  

                  }
