Remarks

The SelectBehavior property establishes how many items the user can select. By default, users can only select one item at a time. However, you can choose to allow users to select multiple items or to prevent users from selecting any items at all.

 

To allow multiple selection, set this property to "Multi" or "Toggle". The "Multi" select behavior allows users to select multiple items using the Control and Shift keys. The "Toggle" select behavior allows users to toggle an item's selection by clicking on it or using the Spacebar. Set the property to "None" of you want to prevent selection altogether, or leave the property set at "Single" to allow only one selected item at a time.

Example

// Allow multiple selection 
Set_Property(@Window:".OLE_TREE", "OLE.SelectBehavior", "Multi")
