I need to make a listview, for each item to be like this:
- An image on the lef.t
- A header text on th etop.
- A minor text on the bottom.
I have a datagridview which is populated with information from a database. I would like it so that when I click on one of the items in the table, the information appears in the text box, or other suitable tool.
The VB output is an EPG (electronic program guide), that has a list of programs and the channels/time etc. So when you click on the program such as 'The News,' the data from the database such as 'Description' will appear in the textbox.
I have a list box on the form which functions as a copy/paste. When you copy something, it is automatically added to the list box as a "clipboard helper". Here is the problem,however: if the text is more than 1 line, the list box does not show all the text.It ends up looking messy.So getting back to my question, is it possible to make the list box item height for an item depending on the amount of lines that item contains?This is a one line sentence in the list box and should take up one line.This is a multi line sentence in the list box and should take up two lines for item height.

I am building a small utility to transfer files. I have a list box that I am adding the file names to be moved. The question is how to I add a text and a value field to a list box item. This will not be databound it is an unbound list box. I am using this to add the filename but I want the value to have the full path for later file moving. So how do I add a value and a text to an item?
Me.lstFilesToMove.Items.Add(System.IO.Path.GetFileName(openFileDialog1.FileName))

In simple terms, I want to compare the value of a databound listbox display member with another string. However; I need to convert the listbox databound items to an array first as I may have to do 1,000's of comparisons on this.
I have a databound listbox from a sql server table that populates fine. I'm trying to retrieve the display value of a listbox item without selecting the item. My goal is to compare items in listbox1 with items in listbox2 and if item is in listbox1 matches an item I want to load into Listbox2, then I do not add the item to Listbox2. Listbox 2 is not databound but contents I'm loading come from a datatable.
So, I iterate through the items in listbox2's datatable but as I'm adding the items from the datatable to the listbox2, I check if the item exists in listbox1. The data that is being compared is the Displaymember of Listbox1 and a string value I want to manually load into listbox2.[code]....
My program populates a drop-down menu with items dynamically at runtime. The items listed are the currently running windows and applications seen in the Windows taskbar. I was wondering if there was a way to retrieve the text of a selected menu item during runtime and use it to set focus to that application or window (which is the text of the selected menu item). I have looked at using the AppActive function to achieve this. I just don't know how to retrieve the text of the dynamically created menu items. Please keep in mind that I am an amateur coder so my code might look stupid. I have tried the following code block with no success:
Private Sub AppActive(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles CurrentlyOpenedWindowsToolStripMenuItem.DropDownItemClicked
AppActivate((Me.CurrentlyOpenedWindowsToolStripMenuItem.DropDown.Items.Item(Text.ToString)))
End Sub
Should I be using the SetForeGroundWindow API instead?
How would you get the text from the currently selected item in a listview?
View 2 Repliesthis seems like such a stupid question but I've taken a long while off from coding and have forgotten how to call up the text from the selected item in a listview. This is because there is no '.text' function within the listview. I looked all over the internet but found 0 solutions . Everything I found just didn't quite answer the question. I have to assume that someone on here would know.

i have a listbox w/items. that when running code, the rtb, if it contains a listbox item, it replaces it.. no problem there..the problem i'm facing is that if i have the word "To" in the listbox, by using .contains, when running text in rtb, if i have "DeskTop" as a word in rtb, it ends up replacing the "To" in "DeskTop"..
i have tried the intellisense menu to the limit on finding something other than .contains to use in order to only replace if it matches exactly the item in the listbox. no luck. ;o/

I have two rich text box, and a button. I want it so that, if I click on the button, everything on first text box, would be on 2nd text box. BUT, if there's a similar line. It would only show one line, except it would have "x#" where # is the amount of times it's duplicated.
So:

Would be:

im trying to add a text changed method to my listview item. all the items are dynamicly created so i would think id have to use an addhandler listviewitem1.textChanged addressof listviewitems_click where listviewitems_click is the generic sub to handle the click. but the listviewitem control doesnt have a text changed event, but you can rename the text in the control anyway.
