yes, i didn't understand the wxwindows documentation but i understand
yours... thanks...

but i found out a better way to solve my problem...
i use now "GetNextItem" with "wxLIST_NEXT_BELOW" but it dosn't work the way
i expect it...

if i pass the last selected item to it, i think it should return "-1"... but
it returns the item i passed to GetNextItem...
if i pass "-1" as item, it doesn't find the next (first) selected item...

any hints/ideas?
