Populate Listview With Filenames (including Associated Icons)
Aug 19, 2009
Dim subfileEntries() As String = Directory.GetFiles(FolderPath)
For Each f As String In subfileEntries
If (File.GetAttributes(f) And FileAttributes.Hidden) <> FileAttributes.Hidden And (File.GetAttributes(f) And FileAttributes.System) <> FileAttributes.System Then

The issue I'm running into is that 1 folder I have has 812 files in it and it takes a good 20 seconds or more to load the files with their Extracted icons.
Furthermore, I ran into one instance where a .pdf file was given a system icon (sort of like the icon a .bat file would receive with the two gears) instead of the Adobe PDF icon.
So, my questions are: 1) Is there a better way to load files so that it will be able to get the icons and display them in the Listview faster?
2) Is there a better way of getting associated icons since the VS built in option seems fallible.

I'm trying to figure out how to make the code from HTML url...I have in a listview with some pdf filenames..each of these pdf's have bookmarks to other pdf files.I managed to get the code to export the bookmarks and load them into the listview..but only the first listing seems to be working. when it gets to the second listing,, when it gets to the exportbookmarkstoxml function..it hits the catch from then on..i've tried several different things and none of them seem to be working..the code i have is somewhat messy because i been messin' with it,,but i'll try and tidy up as much as possible for ya.I'm thinking that something between the using statement needs to be closed or something but i can't get it to come even close..i even tried closing the reader with reader.close and then deleting the outputxml and then making the file again but that isn't working either.

When I add an image to the imagelist, the con shows up. That's fine Let's say that I added 4 images (four items to the listview) then remove one item from the listview. From there, the next item I add will adopt the previous image added. How can I keep this from happening?

I have been trying to create a listview in detail mode which has 2 images (a light is on and one with the light off which represents a boolean value) I have gotten some code which populates the Listview during runtime but i have tried various ways to get the images into this without any success, google has been particularly useless and most examples seem to involve creating an array for each row(great if you have all the data in the first place, my project will perform like a log, it will show an Id, a Name and then 2 colums which should have on/off icons in them.
This is my sample code which works by creating a ListViewItem, adding the items for the row and then adding it. When i did this on my project however it showed nothing in the view (presume i need to refresh it after each add?)

I am trying my hand at .Net 2010. I played around with vb6 for years but now it has come time to do .Net. So I am making a Explorer type app where I have a treeview on the left and a listview on the right. I have all that working fine I now want to add icons to the files listed in the listview. My app calls function in a class file and it populates the listviewHow do you add (dynamically) the icons from the files shown? Below is the function in the class file I have, not the form file.
Public Function ListFoldersFiles(ByVal path As String, ByVal lvTemp As ListView, Optional ByVal sExtFilter As String = "*.*")
' Create a reference to the current directory.

I am trying to add icons to a listview that would contain a list of programs added by the user. I am pulling my hair out over this. I had the solution a few days ago and then I decided to go in another direction and then cleared my browser history. I have searched for that code for awhile now to no avail.

I have created a project that uses a listview associated to an imagelist (LargeImagelist, I have set the size as 100 x 75 and 32 bit depth), that displays information from a database along with an image from the image list. My listview is set to tilemode so that I can control the size of the tiles to get two columns of six. The image list is populated when the form is loaded from all the images in a specific folder, this part is working appropriately as I can get a picturebox working consistently that references an image from the imagelist.

I am trying to populate a row into a listview control and only the first items shows up (the ProductID). the product name, cost, and quantity don't show up.
I guess the control's properties must be set for this. I went and added 4 columns appropriately named, but those column headings don't appear either.
