[RESOLVED] [2005] Retrieving SubItems Value

[SeanK]

I have a ListView with three columns. The first two are text and third is numeric.

I need to get the value from column three (subitem(2)). Here is what I've tried

Messagebox.Show(lvwAddresses.SelectedItems.Item(2)

But, I got this error message: "Value of type 'System.Windows.Forms.ListViewItem' cannot be converted to 'String'."

So, I tried

MessageBox.Show(lvwAddresses.SelectedItems.ToString(Item(2)))

Then I got this error message: "Name item is not declared."

So, how would I get that?

lvwAddresses.SelectedItem.Tostring is enough

You just have to make sure that all three lists have the same item index selected.... if that is what you want??

lvwAddresses.SelectedItemIndex = otherlist.SelectedItemIndex etc...

Messagebox.Show(list1.selectedIem.Tostring + list2.selectedIem.Tostring + lvwAddresses.selectedIem.Tostring)

Try

lvwAddresses.SelectedItems(2).Text

I don't know what you mean by this. I have one ListView with three columns, not three lists.

oops.. sorry misread

[SeanK]

Try

lvwAddresses.SelectedItems(2).Text

This resulted in this

For Each item As ListViewItem In lvwAddresses.SelectedItems
  For Each subItem As ListViewItem.ListViewSubItem In item.SubItems
    Console.Out.WriteLine(subItem.Text)
  Next
Next

[zalez]

lvwAddresses.SelectedItems.Item(0).SubItems(2).Text

[SeanK]

lvwAddresses.SelectedItems.Item(0).SubItems(2).Text

That is what I needed.

Thanks!
