# XmMultiListSelectRow(3)

A MultiList function that selects a row in the list

## NAME

**XmMultiListSelectRow** — A MultiList function that selects a row in the list

## SYNOPSIS

```
#include <Xm/MultiList.h>
void XmMultiListSelectRow(
Widget widget,
XmString row,
Boolean notify);
```

## DESCRIPTION

**XmMultiListSelectRow** highlights the specified row in the MultiList widget.

- *widget*

  Specifies the ID of the MultiList widget from whose list an item is selected.

- *row*

  Specifies the row number (starting from 0) to be selected in the MultiList widget.

- *notify*

  Specifies a Boolean value that when TRUE invokes the selection callback for the current mode. From an application interface view, calling this function with *notify* True is indistinguishable from a user-initiated selection action. When *notify* is FALSE, no callbacks are called.
