[RESOLVED] [2005] Listview scroll bar

[PlayKid]

Hi,

How do I make the scroll bar automatically scroll down while I am busy adding data onto the listview?

Thanks

listviewitems have an EnsureVisible method, that will scroll the listview to make sure that item is in view. As you add each item, call that method on the newly added item, and it will scroll with it..

something like this

Dim lvi As ListViewItem = Nothing
        For i As Integer = 1 To 3000
            lvi = New ListViewItem("Item " & i.ToString)
            ListView1.Items.Add(lvi).EnsureVisible()
            Application.DoEvents()
        Next

if you are not loading your list via a loop, and you are adding them manually (like filling in textboxes and clicking a button that inserts the listviewitem into the listview) then you shouldn't need the application.doevents.

wow....Thanks so much, I never thought there can be a function for that.
