I have an open dialog box which allows me to add files to a listview (only the filename and icon)[code]I am trying to figure out (testing with a messagebox) although the listview only shows the filename, can I actually get the full path to that file, as it is (highlighted in red) I can only get the full path to my debug folder plus the filename.I am also trying to seperate with a semicolon if I have multiples.

For example I only want .txt files to show in a Listview and no other file formats. Is this achievable?I've had a look around the net but not found anything relevant to what I am trying to achieve.

I'm trying to figure out how to list all files of an FTP folder in a listview but I can't figure out how to do this. I tried using the same approach as if I were to list contents of a folder in my harddrive. But this fails.

View 17 RepliesI'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.

View 3 RepliesI want to be able to grab a specific file from a specified directory, read the lines and display them in a text box. What I want to do, is search for multiple text files in a specified directory, display each name in a Listview and, as I click on them, their info is displayed in the text box below.
what I have so far:
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load

Also, when I closed the program and re opened it, it duplicated all of the text files in the list, but did not duplicate them in the directory. Not that I want it to, it just seems odd.

I have a ListView capable of displaying files in all available views (Large Icon, Small Icon, Tile, List, Details). Now I am wondering how to properly use the SmallImagelist and LargeImagelist for the small and large icons...the ListView is actually a modified listview (inheriting from ListView), using a modified ListViewItemCollection.In this custom ListViewItemCollection I use the Add override function to add a few details to my ListViewItem:
vb.net Public Overrides Function Add(ByVal value As System.Windows.Forms.ListViewItem) As System.Windows.Forms.ListViewItem
Dim file As clsTexture = TryCast(value, clsTexture)
If file IsNot Nothing Then
[Code]...
I realize it is a pretty complex post to read and will probably not get very many answers, but I really want to make the most of my Listviews...Of course, one work around is to just always use the LargeIcon which then gets scaled down automatically when the SmallImagelist is used but I am pretty sure there are icons that are very different in Large or Small view...
I want to show a list of files and folders (names + their icons) inside a given directory with a ListView control or equivalent. I understand that ExtractAssociatedIcon gives you the icon of a file, not a folder. So what are my options for this objective? I don't really have a problem if I have to separate folders and files like the following.
Dim fi As New IO.DirectoryInfo(f) 'f is the path of a given directory
For Each subfolder As IO.DirectoryInfo In fi.GetDirectories()
ImageList1.Images.Add(My.Resources.FolderIcon)

If you look at the "For" line, you can see that pulling all files with an extension of .txt. There are some files that I need to pul with different extensions. I tried just doing "*.", and it would grab the files with not extension, but not the txt extension.
So, I wanted to know if there was some way to just pull all files or specify more than one extension.

I have a media browser program I am building. I am trying to use drag/drop so a user can drag media tracks from one listview to another listview and then use the second list view as a playlist in windows media player com object. Reading at MSDN I have found out that there is no built in support for item re-ordering with the listview control. I have listview1 working correctly but when I try to reorder items in listview2, the dragged item ends up at the end of the list. So basically I need to get the item insertion index corrected. I have tried more than 10 times to get this code right.
Here is my code which includes a form with two listview's.
Public Class Form1
Private Sub ListView_ItemDrag(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As _
