I have checked Microsofts Site up and down to find the answer to this. Mucho kudos to anyone who can give me some code to help. I want to do the following:

Write code that will save the way I display data in a listview ( report view only ). I need to be able to:

1. Save Column order.
2. Save Column width.

I am retrieving the data a database using ADO. I have a location table, and an equipment table. A treeview is loaded with all locations from the location table, then the listview shows all equipment at a given location when selected on the treeview. (each piece of equipment has a location id in the equipment table.) The listview should display equipment information such as equipment name, bay, and unit. As I click on each location, I want to save listview settings at each location.

To simulate the desired result, go to Windows Explorer, and change the view to report view. ie detail view, then drag the columns into different order. Go to another directory and then return to your original directory that you changed. Notice the changes were saved. This is exactly what I want to achieve.
