This is difficult to do with a ListView control, however it is trivial with a DataGridView which has CellMouseEnter and CellMouseLeave events. You could scan all SubItems in each row of the listview and use the Bounds.Contains method to determine if the current mouse coordinates lie within a cell but then you'd have to keep track of the last row and column to prevent unnecessary processing and you would be unable to trigger on MouseLeave which would leave columns selected. It gets ugly. I really recommend the DataGridView.
