Listview - why cant i add text to subitems? (always get an error) *Unresolved*

LVW.Items(2).SubItems(2).Text = "ready"
LVW.Items(1).SubItems(1).Text = "ready"
LVW.Items.Item(1).SubItems(2).Text = "ready"

nothing works!

i have a listview, about 30 rows, and 5 colums.. why isnt this working?

i keep getting arguement out of range?

The only way i was able to add them was with
LVW.Items(1).SubItems.Add("***")

but how can i add something to the 3rd column?

please please tell me theres a way to do it without having to set everything as a listviewsubitem or something

Please tell me this isnt the only way to do it..

Code:

---

lCurrent = lvw.Items.Add("text")
lCurrent.SubItems.Add("text")

---

i have all the items added on startup to the first column, the program fills in the other columns when it runs.. the above method would be useless to me.

isnt there a one line way to add a subitem?

you can add subitems like this :

VB Code:

With ListView1
            .Items.Add("a main item")
            .Items(0).SubItems.Add("first subitem") '/// first subitem.
            .Items(0).SubItems.Add("second?") '///second subitem.
        End With

you could also add them all in 1 go , using AddRange , eg:

VB Code:

Dim lItems() As String = {"first subitem", "second?"}
        With ListView1
            .Items.Add("a main item")
            .Items(0).SubItems.AddRange(lItems) '/// add all of em in 1 go..
        End With
