Edit content in listview

Hi!
I need to be able to edit every row under a column in a listview control. VB does this almost automatic with the labeledit property, but only with the listitem (the first column), not the listsubitems..

I could of course swap the order of my columns, but that would look very weird :(

Any suggestions?

Something that isn't easy and at the same time isn't difficult to implement: you'll need to create a floating Textbox that perfectly fit inside each cell (especially when gridlines are visible). So, good luck.

Surely there is an easier way than that... thats crazy talk LOL

there is no edit property for subitem labels but you could edit them like this :

VB Code:

Private listMainItem As String
 
Private Sub Form_Load()
With ListView1
    .ListItems.Add 1, , "item 1"
    .ListItems.Add 2, , "item 2"
    .ListItems(1).ListSubItems.Add , , "subitem 1"
    .ListItems(2).ListSubItems.Add , , "subitem 2"
End With
End Sub
 
Private Sub ListView1_AfterLabelEdit(Cancel As Integer, NewString As String)
ListView1.SelectedItem.ListSubItems(1).Text = NewString '///make the subitem become the edited item.
NewString = listMainItem '/// make the main item back to it's original text.
End Sub
 
Private Sub ListView1_BeforeLabelEdit(Cancel As Integer)
listMainItem = ListView1.SelectedItem.Text '///asign exsisting main item to a string.
End Sub
