Hello everyone !
As you can see I am new to this. It is also my first post! I have a
visual c# pocket pc form with a listview in it. The listview has one
column at the moment and it is populated by using a textbox and a
button. I am trying to save to contents of the listview to an Xml file.
I have the following code and the debugger gives me no errors, but when
I am trying to save on the pocket pc or the emulator I get
InvalidCastExce ption. I guess that the problem is when I convert the
listview to the dataset but I can’t figure it out. I would really
appreciate your input.
DataSet data = new DataSet();
DataGrid dg = new DataGrid();
dg.DataSource = listView1.Items ;
data = (DataSet) dg.DataSource;
and then save the data like:
Writer = new XmlTextWriter(D ataFile,
System.Text.Enc oding.Unicode);
data.WriteXml(W riter,XmlWriteM ode.WriteSchema );
Writer.Close();
There is a lot of info on how to populate a datagrid or listview from an
xml using a dataset. But how can I do the opposite ?? The datagrid does
take the data from the list but the conversion to dataset gives errors
(InvalidCastExc eption)..
Thanks in advance !
