Downloaded latest source (5 minutes ago). I see this erroneous behavior:

2 Click (select)

6 Shift+click

Now row 2-6 are selected, and focus is at position 6. If I Shift+click row 4, the selection should be 2-4 with focus at position 4, but Report Control yields a selection of 2-6 with focus set at position 4. This is wrong (you can try it in XP/Vista or similar).

Basically, there are only two rules for correct clicking logic...

The proper action when shift-clicking is:

1) Remove current selection, but remember anchor position (anchor is always included in the selection).

2) Select from anchor to clicked row.

When ctrl-clicking, the anchor is updated to the clicked row!

My theory: You don't update the anchor position when a selection is present?

So get related source update and build your app to check - https://forum.codejock.com/uploads/DemoVersion/ReportControlMFCUpdatedAug27.rar - https://forum.codejock.com/uploads/DemoVersion/ReportControlMFCUpdatedAug27.rar

Also look on new feature - Report Control with resizable rows - select row and you can track down row height -

Menu - Help - Header-Footer turn this mode off

With released 13.1, I was having the problem listed in another post where GetCount() was giving incorrect results ( see http://forum.codejock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=14948 ) and I applied the ReportControlMFCUpdatedAug27.rar source update listed above to fix that problem. It now appears that applying an unmodified left click to any currently-selected row in the report does not replace the current selection, it merely changes focus.

The stable update ReportControlMFCUpdated.rar (SVN matched version) while ReportControlMFCUpdatedAug27.rar is current working progress

(see http://forum.codejock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=13387&PID=52496#52496 - http://forum.codejock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=13387&PID=52496#52496 ) to help us with testing.

You right - it will be de-select all previous selection in your case and select only one row you click

Good - did you try to resize row's height?
