Make ListView FindItemWithText Match Entire Text
Jun 21, 2012
I have a ListView with two columns, and before enter a new item in the listview, I want to prevent entering a duplicate value, so I found ListView.FindItemWithText to accomplish that.
But I realized that if I enter 232323, and then enter 2323, which is different but starts with the same digits as the first entry, the function returns that item as a match.
I wonder if there is any way to match the whole text (exact text) to avoid the above.
Here is my code:
Dim ChkSIM As New ListViewItem
ChkSIM = lvItems.FindItemWithText("2323")
If Not ChkSIM Is Nothing Then
lblErrorSIM.Text = "Already in list"
End If

I am trying to use some VB6 code for a listview in my .net application. However, once it converted it to vb.net code i can not seem to get pass this:
Dim ListObj As System.Windows.Forms.ListViewItem
ListObj = LV1.FindItemWithText(Name_Renamed, True, 0)
It keeps telling me
InvalidArgument=Value of '0' is not valid for 'startIndex'. Parameter
name: startIndex
I've tried to input a 1 instead of a 0 but i still get the same error message as above

In the screenshot, you can see where the BackColor is set for each item added to the ListView on the right. How can I fill the white space between the columns as well? I'm assuming the column width is the highlighted portion plus the white space. I thought setting the BackColor would fill this whole portion so that there essentially would be no white space at all showing anywhere in the listview (except maybe at the bottom). Is there a Property I need to set to do this? the listview has 1 column and it's autoresize property is set to CellContent.

I can't claim credit for this code but I think it's cool. It will show the entire contents of an item in a tooltip even when the columns are truncating it. Drop a tooltip and listview container on your form with the default name.
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
ListView1.Clear()
ListView1.View = View.Details

I want to make the text in column of ListView control to be 2 lines. So I use the codes below to test. The result is bad. The "vbcrlf" in str2 doesnot work at all. Dim str1 As String = "Job Number12345" Dim str2 As String = "Job Number" + vbCrLf + "12345" ListView1.Columns.Add(str1, 100, HorizontalAlignment.Center) ListView1.Columns.Add(str2, 100, HorizontalAlignment.Center)

I created the following view
<ListView.View>
<GridView>
<GridViewColumn Header="Tester"
[code]....
Now what I suppose is that, After I entered something in "Comment" field and press the Key "Enter", the next row of the "Comment" field will get focus.
I added the following code of the event "PreviewKeyDown", but it seems that the next whole row will get focus not only the "Comment" field...
Private Sub TxtComment_PreviewKeyDown(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Input.KeyEventArgs)
Dim focusRequest As TraversalRequest
Dim focusedElement As Object = sender

I have a listbox where each line contains a short 3-4 character model number followed by a tab and then the product name the model number corresponds to. I also have a textbox which I am using to search the listbox.
The code I am using so far works somewhat, just not exactly how I would like. If I enter search text it will highlight the results in the listbox but only for the first characters, is there anyway to search the text of an entire line (index) of a listbox?
Right now I am using the following:
Private Sub txtSearch_TextChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles txtSearch.TextChanged
ListBox.SelectedIndex = ListBox.FindString(txtSearch.Text)
End Sub

i'm using Visual Basic 2008 Express Edition how is it possible to match text between tags?
for example i have a string : <data>Text</data>more text..., how i can get the Text which is inside <data></data> ( .Replace won't help).
[Code]...
I use this because in my case the tags will be always without id, class, width, href, src, style .... just tag name (ex:<data><str><text>...)
