    Listview question

    Hi all,

    I know that I can get the value of a particualar column in a list view by
    something like this:
    lvwRoster.Selec tedItems(0).Sub Items(2).Text

    However, is it possible to get the value by column name? In vb.net you can
    assign a column name for each column, but I don't know where I can use
    it.... any idea?

    Thx~~~

    Kay

      Kay,

      A listview is not a datatable (dataview).
      A listview has headers but AFAIK no column names,

          It has Cor...in a listview's property, it has a "columns" collection, in
          each column you can assign a name there, it also where you can assign the
          column Text.... am I correct?

              Kay,

              But AFAIK does by instance a datatable column describe a datarow item.
              (Therefore you cannot simple move a datarow to another datatable).

              A listview column describes only a header column not a
              listviewitemcol lection item.

                  The DataGridView control, unbound, can be configured to look indentical to a ListView, Detail View,
                  and will give you the functionality you are looking for.

                      Kay,

                      If you set the Name property on the ListViewItem and the ListViewSubItem s as you add them into the ListView you can then access the
                      columns by name. For example, if you set the ListViewItem.Na me to "FirstName" then you can access the column as:

                      lvwRoster.Selec tedItems(0).Sub Items("FirstNam e").Text

                      I hope this helps.
