listview

[mooose]

my question is about the list view in the microsoft windows control 5 i think it is.

i have 2 colums in my list view, but how do i write to the second column? to write to the listview this seems to work:

ListView1.ListItems.Add , , "whatever"
but if i do this:
ListView1.ListItems.Add (2) , , "whatever"

it still writes to the first column.

someone told me to do this:

listview1.ListItems.Item(2).ListSubItems.Add , , "Cya"

but that does not work for me maybe because I am in vb5, so how do you actually enter something in the second column?

thanx

Columns after the first one are treated as SubItems. Here's an example:

Private Sub Command1_Click()
    Dim xListItem As ListItem
    Dim xColHeader As ColumnHeader
    Dim i As Integer
    
    With ListView1
        Set xColHeader = .ColumnHeaders.Add(, , "Column1")
        Set xColHeader = .ColumnHeaders.Add(, , "Column2")
        Set xColHeader = .ColumnHeaders.Add(, , "Column3")
    
        Set xListItem = .ListItems.Add(, , "First Value")
        'SubItems are 1 - based
        For i = 1 To .ColumnHeaders.Count - 1
            xListItem.SubItems(i) = "SubItem" & i & " value"
        Next
    End With
End Sub
