I'm a very newbie with VB.NET so excuse me for silly question. I have a two-dimensional array and want populate listview with it's elements. For this I'm trying use something like this:
lst_arrayShow.Items.Clear()
For currentColumn As Integer = 0 To (columnsCnt - 1)
lst_arrayShow.Columns.Add("")
For currentRow As Integer = 0 To (rowsCnt - 1)
'lst_arrayShow.Items.Add()
Next
Next
What should I use instead of 'lst_arrayShow.Items.Add()
?
UPD: columnsCnt is number of columns in array and rowsCnt is number of rows in array
In a multicolumn ListView
you need to set the property View
to View.Details
and then be sure to define all the columns needed. So, if you haven't already done it in the Designer, you need to add the columns required to your ListView
lst_arrayShow.View = View.Details
For currentColumn As Integer = 0 To (columnsCnt - 1)
lst_arrayShow.Columns.Add("Column Nr: " & currentColumn
Next
Next, now that you have defined the columns, you could loop over your rows and create a ListViewItem
for each row.
The ListViewItem
has a Subitems
collection that correspond to the Columns defined above
For currentRow As Integer = 0 To (rowsCnt - 1)
' Create the ListViewItem with the value from the first column
Dim item = new ListViewItem(yourArray(currentRow,0))
' The remainder columns after the first are added to the SubItems collection
For currentColumn As Integer = 1 To (columnsCnt - 1)
item.SubItems.Add(yourArray(currentRow,currentColumn))
Next
' Finally, the whole ListViewItem is added to the ListView
lst_arrayShow.Items.Add(item)
Next
