[Resolved] ListView Strange Problem =S

I have another problem.

I'm using the list view to show data from a file.
It splits it up into columns and cell etc etc

A Strange thing happens when i clear the listview and then reload the data into it (a refresh options). It's for a game by the way.

The following happens.. say this is my table here

("" is the next cell, i didn't want to post a pic too long)

Snail "" 5/0 "" 4 "" 6 "" 00001
Slime "" 6/7 "" 3 "" 7 "" 00002
Something Else "" 1/2 "" 6 "" 7 "" 0003

I use the same code to reload the listview from the file, i just use the ListView.Clear function before reloading the data.

Slime "" "" "" ""
Something Else "" "" "" ""
Snail "" 1/2 "" 6 "" 7 "" 0003

They load in what looks like reverse, but only the bottom stats for the monster shows up and its not even for the monster (the names rearrange).

If you want a screen shot, i can provide it
Here's the code:

VB Code:

Private Sub Form_Load()
 
LstMonster.ListItems.Clear
Load_Monsters LstMonster
 
End Sub
 
'The Loading sub
 
Public Sub Load_Monsters(List_ As ListView)
 
List_.ListItems.Clear
 
DoEvents
 
Dim Monsters_() As String
Dim MStats_() As String
Dim SText As String
Dim I As Integer
 
SText = ""
I = 0
 
Open "MonsterList.txt" For Input As #1
SText = Input(LOF(1), #1)
Close #1
 
Monsters_ = Split(SText, "|MSplit|")
 
List_.SortKey = Left(Monsters_(0), 2)
 
For I = 1 To UBound(Monsters_)
 
Mstats = Split(Monsters_(I), "|LSplit|")
 
List_.ListItems.Add , , Mstats(0)
List_.ListItems.Item(I).SubItems(1) = Trim(Mstats(1))
List_.ListItems.Item(I).SubItems(2) = Trim(Mstats(2))
List_.ListItems.Item(I).SubItems(3) = Trim(Mstats(3))
List_.ListItems.Item(I).SubItems(4) = Trim(Mstats(4))
List_.ListItems.Item(I).SubItems(5) = Trim(Left(Mstats(5), 5))
 
Next I
 
List_.Sorted = True
 
End Sub
 
'Here's the refresh code that i use (just reload because the clear is in the load code)
 
Private Sub Refresh_Click()
 
Load_Monsters LstMonster
 
end sub

Can you attach the file "MonsterList.txt" ?? so we can "play" with it?

ok, here it is.

ok do it like this (Using a ListItem Object)

VB Code:

Public Sub Load_Monsters(List_ As ListView)
    List_.ListItems.Clear
    DoEvents
    Dim Monsters_() As String
    Dim MStats_() As String
    Dim SText As String
    [B]Dim LI As ListItem[/B]
    Dim I As Integer
    SText = ""
    I = 0
    Open "C:\MonsterList.txt" For Input As #1
        SText = Input(LOF(1), #1)
    Close #1
    Monsters_ = Split(SText, "|MSplit|")
    List_.SortKey = Left(Monsters_(0), 2)
    For I = 1 To UBound(Monsters_)
        Mstats = Split(Monsters_(I), "|LSplit|")
        [B]Set LI = List_.ListItems.Add(, , Mstats(0))[/B]
        [B]LI.SubItems(1) = Trim(Mstats(1))
        LI.SubItems(2) = Trim(Mstats(2))
        LI.SubItems(3) = Trim(Mstats(3))
        LI.SubItems(4) = Trim(Mstats(4))
        LI.SubItems(5) = Trim(Left(Mstats(5), 5))[/B]
    Next I
    List_.Sorted = True
End Sub

your code didnt seem to add the subitems to the right things? odd.. but this worked

Thanks! It works great now.
