Hi,

I am trying make listview perform like the listbox.

In list box i usually assign a value to the data field so that when i need to retrieve the data from the search field i could simply pull the data from the listbox. Its like a key which cannot be seen on the screen.

e.g. lstSearchResults.ItemData(lstSearchResults.ListCount - 1) = rsUser("tableID")

Now i trying to apply the similar concept to the listview but aint sure on how to go about doing so. Any one have any idea on how to go about doing so or any refreshing ideas

Thank You in advance

set View property of ListView to 'Details'

This one took me a while but it's as easy as one line of code.

When setting the "selected" value to True:

ListView1.SelectedItem.Selected = True

add the following line of code right after:

ListView1.SelectedItem.EnsureVisible

remember to change "ListView1" to the name of your ListView control

I'm having the same problem. There's no .Columns property/method (using .ColumnHeaders does the same thing) and no Details option under View.

I have a list viewcontrol in my application. Currently the user can the minimize the columnheader  width to zero. I want to restrict the user to minimize the column header to a particular point . How can this be achieved?

Any replies would be appreciated. It is urgen
-Thanks

i have never heard of this problem..
you might want to check your virsion of VB or VS.
i do believe i know that some commercial virsions (ones you get with books) don't let you make your own controls but I don't know about your situation buddy. I would try installing a different virsion unless you bought your virsion hehe. If you did purchase it, try contacting Microsoft.

I need to know how to allow the rows to be reordered (drag and drop) in either this or (preferrably) a Listbox. I can make the columns reorder-able but that's no help. (I'm only even using one column.)

My version of MSVB6 does'nt allow me to use the code
Code:

ListView1.ListItems.Remove (ListView1.SelectedItem)

(getting error).

Looking at the syntax, the Remove-method requires an Index for the item to remove, but here an Item has been put as a param.
So, I changed the code to:
Code:

ListView1.ListItems.Remove(ListView1.SelectedItem.Index)

which worked!

(sorry about the spelling etc. - I'm from Denmark!)

can someone help me? please... please ... please

sorry for bad english, i hope someone will understand what i want, thanks so much.......

Dear Sir:

Your Tutorial on Listviews is very interesting, and I will learn something from it.  I am a VB6 Freshman, and have developed an Amortization program that is working well, but i decided to expand its features by incorporating the flexibility for the User to dictate when Extra Principal payment are to be made and in what amounts.

I started using a Listview to draw the Payment numbers, and Dates (as started from a Monthview), and allow the User to then select in which  Payment numbers they will make an Extra Payment, and entered an amount which could vary from selection to selection of Payment numbers.

The AMortziation program will be default schedule the amortization with ExtraPayments at zero, according to the number of Years (Term), and Periods of months in a year (Months).

How do I draw these data from the FlexGrid to the Listview so that the User can checkmark his selections???

I also get error when i tried the code above
if you're having problem with that code try this one

ListView1.ListItems.Remove (ListView1.SelectedItem.Index)
this is the code i use and it worked!

this site is really cool, i learn a lot

Okay, something I'm completely lost on and can't seem to find any info on.  If I assign a unique key to every item in the listview box with the add method, how do I later acess an item in the list by that key instead of by the index?  I see how to determine what the key is for an item (after I've referenced the item by index), but not how to directly reference an item by the key.

My problem is that I have a sorted listview with multiple columns.  Because of having the list sorted, I can never be sure of the specific index that an item may get added at.  Specifically, when trying to add the subitems, after adding the main item, I can't just rely on the index of the main item.  Normally the sub items would be added using a line like this.

lstview.listitems(i).subitems(1) = sSubItemText

But when I added the main item, that index could be anywhere in the list since it's a sorted list.  So I figured I'd need to use the key, but I can't figure out how to reference a specific list item by the key.

Thank you!

 

I would like to know whether there is any way to change change font/back ground color for individual subitems in a listview control.
