lbSetCurSel

Description

Selects the item with the given index in the listbox, listnbox, combobox, xcombobox, xlistbox

Important

The following only applies to the Alternative Syntax when used with CT_LISTBOX and CT_LISTNBOX.

To deselect all entries, use -1: _ctrl lbSetCurSel -1; For listbox of style LB_MULTI use lbSetSelected instead.
CT_COMBO does not allow deselecting entries, it will instead select the first one as it is not a combobox usual behaviour.

If you really need to deselect a combobox, see DreadedEntity's note. For the ComboBox you might as well want to explicitly select index 0 to avoid showing ghost row.
