private void listView1_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
		{						

			for( int i = 0 ;i< this.listView1.Items.Count ;i++)
			{
				if (listView1.Items[i].Selected == true)
				{
					MessageBox.Show(listView1.SelectedItems[0].Text);						
				}
						  
			}
		}

You mean like this ?

private void listView1_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
		{						

			for( int i = 0 ;i< this.listView1.Items.Count ;i++)
			{
				if (listView1.Items[i].Selected == true)
				{
txtSend.text(listView1.SelectedItems[0].Text;						
				}
						  
			}
		}

I tried to compile it but gives error

): 'System.Windows.Forms.Control.Text' denotes a 'property' where a 'method' was expected

The code compiles .However when I select the row on the ListBox
it does not display on the textBox.. I am selecting the row on the list view control....it should display on the txtSend.Text

Pls guide...

Should we use listViewClients.FullRowSelect???

Pls guide..

You could have downloaded it off the link under my sig . Anyways , it's packed with winzip now .

The only difference I could finf between yours and my application is that you are adding the values in the Items (aaa,bbb, ccc) Collections.

Mine is a Client -Server application in which the information is sent by the client to the server.The information is stored in the list view on the server.So the information is added at Run time .

I do not know whether that is creating any difference.

Pls guide...

Adding values at runtime or design time won't make any difference . Both ways would add the item to the collection obj of the listview therefore , has it's own index number .

Are you getting specific error or anything that make sense ?

[Rahils573]

I am not getting any errors . Just that it is not displaying on the
Text Box.

I am sending my code shortly...

Your problem was with attaching the event handler to the listview . To fix this do the following :
1-Click the listview , then go the properties window , click the yellow icon on the right (events) . Then scroll to Click and doubleclick it . Then copy this code :

for( int i = 0 ;i< this.listViewClients.Items.Count ;i++)
{
    if (listViewClients.Items[i].Selected == true)
   {
       this.textBox1.Text=listViewClients.SelectedItems[0].Text;
   }
} 

in the istViewClients_Click generated event . Then you should see your program working fine.

Here's your proj back to you if you can't get it work .

Thanks you very much .Its working now.
