As far as I can tell, there unfortunately isn't a single setting to disable being able to select records. I've come up with my own way.

The most effective way to not make anything rows selectable is by defining a mouse down event and setting the focus of another control:

Private Sub ReportControl_MouseDown(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Long, Y As Long)
SomeOtherControl.SetFocus
End Sub

The "SomeOtherControl" can be just about any other visible control on the form.

If you just wanted to hide the selection box, you could do:

ReportControl.PaintManager.HighlightBackColor = ReportControl.PaintManager.BackColor
ReportControl.PaintManager.HighlightForeColor = ReportControl.PaintManager.ForeColor

The focus rectangle will still appear however.

When I fill the report control and show the data with the populate method, the focused row property have an undefined (nothing) value and no row have the focus. When I set the focusedrow property to nothing, I will this behaviour that no row have the focus. And not with the workaround, that I set the highlightbackcolor property or delete the focusedrow from the selectedrows property.
