[RESOLVED] Populate 3 Row Listview From Text File

[toecutter]

Hi

I amd trying to populate a listview control from a text file.

Text File has data set as:

Line 1 = Name
Line 2 = Date
Line 3 = email address

eg:


Iam trying to use this code

        'POPULATE LISTVIEW WITH TEXTFILE
        'http://www.vbforums.com/showthread.php?t=242250&highlight=write+listview+textfile
        Dim sr As IO.StreamReader
        Dim strLine, strLine2, strLine3 As String
        Dim strFileName As String = Application.StartupPath & "\Emailed.txt"
        ' Open the file to read.
        Try
            sr = IO.File.OpenText(strFileName)
            Try
                With Me.lsvEmailed
                    While sr.Peek <> -1
                        strLine = sr.ReadLine
                        strLine2 = sr.ReadLine
                        strLine3 = sr.ReadLine
                        lsvEmailed.Items.Add(strLine).SubItems.Add(strLine2).Subitems.Add(strLine3)
                    End While
                End With
            Catch
                MsgBox("Unexpected error reading character file - check the contents of " _
                + strFileName + ".", MsgBoxStyle.Exclamation)
            End Try
            sr.Close()
        Catch ex As Exception
            MessageBox.Show(ex.Message, "Error opening file!")
        End Try

The code works fine if iam only adding 1 subitem

lsvEmailed.Items.Add(strLine).SubItems.Add(strLine2)

but if i try to add 2 subitems

lsvEmailed.Items.Add(strLine).SubItems.Add(strLine2).Subitems.Add(strLine3)

When i build the file i get a build error:

Error 2 'Subitems' is not a member of 'System.Windows.Forms.ListViewItem.ListViewSubItem'. C:\Documents and Settings\Toecutter\My Documents\Visual Studio 2005\Projects\Emailed\Emailed\Form1.vb 201 25 Emailed

Any help much appreciated
