How does ListView work? Please help

I don't know how to add items to a listview, I probably don't know anything about it and I can't find anything inte the help other than what commands there are (but not how to use them with ListView). Please, If you know any place where I can find some information about how using a listview, tell me...

The "vital" things I need to know is how to clear the list and how to add to it.. (and it's columns)....

Thanks :

Right, here goes!

You can add columns either through the property pages or in code

Code:

---

Private Sub Form_Load()
       
' Add ColumnHeaders. The width of the columns is
        ' the width of the control divided by the number of
        ' ColumnHeader objects.
        ListView1.ColumnHeaders. _
        Add , , "col1", ListView1.Width / 3
        ListView1.ColumnHeaders. _
        Add , , "col2", ListView1.Width / 3, _
        lvwColumnCenter
        ListView1.ColumnHeaders. _
        Add , , "col3", ListView1.Width / 3
        ' Set View property to Report.
        ListView1.View = lvwReport
End Sub

---

to add data to rows you have to add a list item.

data in subsequent columns are sub items of the list item:

Code:

---

Private Sub Command1_Click()
Dim itmx As ListItem

Set itmx = ListView1.ListItems.Add(, , "somthing in col1")
    ' SubItem 1 to it.
   
      itmx.SubItems(1) = "something in col2"
 

   
    ' SubItem 2 to it.
 
      itmx.SubItems(2) = "somethinmg in col3"

   
End Sub

hope this helps

Just another q... how do you make that "code" style where you put code? :)

I can't wite the code because it thinks I will put some code in the message but the info is avaible if you lock at the left field and read the "*UBB Code is ON". There is all commands that you can use..
