Display text in an ownerdrawn listview - again.

Hello,

The concept goes like this: The user selct n number of rows in a listview, and then right-click the mouse, and select an item from the popup menu. How many items - and which one - the user selected, and the text to display in the columns 1, 2 and 3, is determined in the sub shown below. So far, so good.The problem is that I can't see a way to get the text into the listview, and I don't know what triggers the DrawItem event in this case - control is Ownerdrawn.

I would be grateful for some hint to point me into the right direction in this matter.

Thanks for your help!

For idx = 0 To 2

' What text to display in column 1,2 and 3

Listview1.Items.Item(idx).Text = Mid$("abc", idx + 1, 1)

'Shows the item indexes selected, and the text to display in each coulum in that item(row)

MsgBox(Listview1.SelectedIndices.Item(index) & " " & Listview1.Items.Item(idx).Text)

Next

End Sub

    Do it like this:

    For index As Integer = 0 To ListView1.SelectedIndices.Count - 1
    For column As Integer = 0 To 2
    ListView1.Items(index).SubItems(column).Text = Mid$("abc", column + 1, 1)
    Next
    Next

    Make sure that you've created the SubItems. The painting will take care of itself.

    Hello,

    Many thanks for your reply. Yes, it got painted this time, but the text got inserted into the wrong items(rows). Actually item 0,1 and 2. After changing the code - see below - it all now works like a charm.

    Again - many thanks for you help!
