IConsole::SelectScopeItem method (mmc.h)

  • Article

Selects the given scope item.

Syntax

HRESULT SelectScopeItem(
  [in] HSCOPEITEM hScopeItem
);

Parameters

[in] hScopeItem

A handle to the item in the scope pane to be selected.

Return value

This method can return one of these values.

Remarks

Use this method to reselect the currently selected scope item or to select another scope item.

You can have a single scope item with several different views available, for example, several OLE custom control (OCX) views and the default list view. When the user selects a different view from a menu, the snap-in receives the command and should then call SelectScopeItem to reselect the item. IComponent::GetResultViewType can then return the new view type.

If SelectScopeItem is called by the snap-in in its MMCN_EXPAND notification handler, MMC will not select the specified scope item, even though SelectScopeItem may return S_OK.
