I try to use GetItemAt method inside my mouse_down event,
but it always return null value to me. Here is my sample
code:

private void listFileHistory_MouseDown(object sender,
MouseEventArgs e)
        {

        System.Windows.Forms.ListViewItem item =
this.listFileHistory.GetItemAt(e.X, e.Y);
        }

Any idea?

Thanks

You might need to convert the screen co-ordinates to client co-ordinates

System.Windows.Forms.ListViewItem item =
this.listFileHistory.GetItemAt(listFileHistory.PointToClient(e.X, e.Y));

That code works fine for me.
Are you sure you're clicking on the item?
Does the item become selected afterwards?
