Index Of Newly Added Item In Sorted Listview
I need to find the index number of the item last added to a listview.
I can use listcount, except if the user clicks on the column header
and sorts the list, then the next item added could be listed in the
middle of the items already in the list. So .ListCount would not work
in that situation. So if I have a listview with items #1,#2,#3, and
I add an item which is placed in between #1 and #2, how can I find out it's spot in the list????
Any ideas or direction would be very helpful.
Click Item In Listview Then Show That Item In Combo As Index = 0
Hi guys,
I have a listview (lvwUserPunchedOut) that is populated with records in a database (persons first name in one column and last name in the second column), what I am looking to do is if I select a persons name by clicking on it in the listview on frmMain, and then bring up frmSearchCriteria, i would like to show that selected name in the combobox as default (cboEmployee.ListIndex = 0) on frmSearchCriteria (the combobox is sorted = True and is also populated with first name and last name of the person)
How would this be done? Hope I make sense. Thanks in advance.
Determining The Length Of The Longest Item Being Added To A Combo Box
I have no idea if this is possible, but here is what I'm told needs to be done.
I have to add three items to a combo box (ListViews or third party components are not an option).
The second item is the name of an insurance company, which can vary in length.
As the combo is being populated, I need to determine the length of the item, and add the third item one space over. If the next item that is being loaded is the same length or shorter, I need the third item to be loaded in the exact same spot as it was the last time. If the next item being loaded is longer than any previous item, I need to add one to its length and MOVE everything that has been previous loaded over to that location so that at the end of the combo load, the third item lines up in a nice, neat, little row.
I've told my boss that I don't believe this is possible but I want to double check with you guys.
(PS: I have no sample code to post 'cause I wouldn't even know where to start on this one. )
Listbox: How To Know Last Added Item's Index, When The Listbox Is Sorted?
When sorted property of a listbox is set to True, each new item added won't be at the end of the list, it will be automatically placed in the correct index, according to text order, is there a way to know which is the index of that item (last item added)? Looping to find it would be horrendous, I just need the index to mark that item selected.
Cannot Get Index Of Item In Combo
i have added each printer on the system to a combo box:
for each prn in printers
cboPrinter.additem prn.devicename
next
then set the first item to be systems default printer:
cboPrinter.Text = Printer.DeviceName
When i click a button to get the index of the item in the dropdown box:
For i = 0 To cboPrinter.ListCount - 1
MsgBox cboPrinter.List(i) & cboPrinter.ListIndex
Next
it says the listindex for each item is -1. Shouldn't it be 1 to how many printers there are in the list ie:
printer 1 = index 1
printer 2 = index 2
etc?
Or is that method of setting the default printer wrong and interfering?
thanks for your time.

Index Last Added Image
I am using a DHTMLedit control in ma VB6 app.
I have a 'add picture' button and I add a picture in my DHTMLedit document as follows
DHTMLedit1.execCommand DECMD_IMAGE,OLECMDEXECOPT_PROMPTUSER
This works but now i want to get the image index so i can change the attributes.
As soon as I add the image, the added image hasn't got the focus, so or i set focus on the image (but how) it has no id/name and what's is index?
I tried something like
tk = DHTMLEdit1.DOM.images(DHTMLEdit1.DOM.images.Length-1).Src
But the problem with length -1 is that this gives only the last positioned index (on bottom of the page) on the page and not the last added one.
So i have to use something else, any ideas?

Show Last Item Added In Listview.
Hello there! I just wanted to ask if there's any way to display or go to the last item added in a listview. I have this attendance system and it's working out fine. But they want to see that during scanning, their name should be displayed as it's added to the listview. There will be no user intervention by the way as the computer is inside a cabinet with just the barcode scanner the interact with.
Sort Vba Listbox After New Item Added
I have a listbox which I want to sort after a new item has beed added. My code is as follows:
Code:
With Name
i = .ListIndex
i = i + 1
.AddItem , i
s = InputBox("Please enter name: ")
If s = "" Then
.RemoveItem i
Else
.List(i, 0) = s
.List(i, 1) = s
End If
End With
Dim vaItems As Variant
Dim p As Long, q As Long
Dim vTemp As Variant
vaItems = Me.Name.List
For p = LBound(vaItems, 1) To UBound(vaItems, 1) - 1
For q = p + 1 To UBound(vaItems, 1)
If vaItems(p, 0) > vaItems(q, 0) Then
vTemp = vaItems(p, 0)
vaItems(p, 0) = vaItems(q, 0)
vaItems(q, 0) = vTemp
End If
Next q
Next p
'Clear the listbox
Me.Name.Clear
For p = LBound(vaItems, 1) To UBound(vaItems, 1)
Me.TeamCode.AddItem vaItems(p, 0)
Next p
End Sub
The code works fine until I add the sort code (also found on this forum, I think by Timbo?), it causes a type mismatch error at:
'For p = LBound(vaItems, 1) To UBound(vaItems, 1) - 1'
Any idea what I have done wrong?
Listview Item Added Event
I was just wondering if there was a way of triggering an event when an item is added to a ListView control.
I am making a server browsing app, and due to the design of it, I need to trigger an event when a new server gets added to the list (so that I can add ping values, etc.)
Would subclassing the control be suitable for this requirement? I'd prefer it if there was another way, because I'm not 100% sure how to subclass a control as I've never had to before, and also because it might either slow down the app considerably or cause it to crash. It queries about 30-50 servers per second, so the method used would need to be as fast as possible.
Thanks.

Showing The Latest Item Added To A ListBox
Hi,
I have a listbox to which I'm adding new items. The listbox is high enough to show 6 items without having to use the scroll bar.
When the listbox gets more than 6 items, I want it to scroll automatically to the bottom of the list to show the latest items without having user to use the scroll bar.
How do I do this?
Thanks.
Is It Possible To Subclass A Menu Item Added To Another Appliction?
I've tried numerous times, and failed, to gain control of a menu subitem added to a menu in an existing application.
I am trying to create an addon to a program that does not have an exported object model to play with.. I have been able to create a menu item with subitems under it but have been unsuccessful in subclassing the wndproc for these menu items to control them when clicked on.
I am currently using Win2k and VB6 sp3. Does anyone know of a way to do this?
(I heard of problems w/ setwindowlong replacing windowprocs in 2000 unless the software is part of the same process thread. I even Tried attaching my process to the other applications process thread, however unsuccessfully).
Thanks in advance.

Listview- Display Most Recent Added Item On Top
Hi,
I have a small problem with listview sorting....coz right now, my most recent added item appears at the most bottom row. And I've this limited area of listview that can only display 4 rows. Thus, when i add more than 4 items, the rest of items does not appear on the listview immediately. So, i have to scroll the vertical bar to locate the last added item.
Wonder if VB provides a function whereby the most recent added item can be displayed at the top of the listview instead. And probably it can also get selected to show that it's the most recent item added(the next feature).
If not, any suggestions?
Thanks
How To Play Wave Sound When An Item Is Added To Listview?
Could any one show me how i can play a wave sound only once when new row is added to listview? The code beleow is used to populate listview.
1 Code:
Private Sub PopulateListview()
Dim objDoc As MSXML2.DOMDocument
Dim objNodelist As IXMLDOMNodeList
Dim objNode As IXMLDOMNode
Dim lvwItem As ListItem
If objDocCopy Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
Set objDoc = objDocCopy
'add all the song nodes into a nodelist
Set objNodelist = objDoc.selectNodes("//song")
'Clear the listview
ListView1.ListItems.Clear
'Loop through each song node and add to the list view
For Each objNode In objNodelist
Set lvwItem = ListView1.ListItems.Add(, , objNode.selectSingleNode("artist").Text)
lvwItem.SubItems(1) = objNode.selectSingleNode("name").Text
lvwItem.SubItems(2) = objNode.selectSingleNode("image").Text
lvwItem.SubItems(3) = objNode.selectSingleNode("rating").Text
'lvwItem.SubItems(4) = objNode.selectSingleNode("songid").Text
lvwItem.SubItems(4) = objNode.selectSingleNode("totalvotes").Text
lvwItem.SubItems(5) = objNode.selectSingleNode("page").Text
lvwItem.SubItems(6) = objNode.selectSingleNode("referrer").Text
lvwItem.SubItems(7) = objNode.selectSingleNode("pageWindowName").Text
Next objNode
Set lvwItem = Nothing
Set objNodelist = Nothing
Set objDoc = Nothing
End Sub
ListBox: Automatically Scroll So Last Item Added Is Shown At Bottom
Maybe listbox is not the best way to do this, but here's what I want:
Program creates log records to display to user what tasks the program is performing. The log records are displayed in chronological order as they are written. Whenever a new record is written, it will be the last one visible within the list box. If the list box can show 4 records, when record 5 is written, you'll see records 2-5 in the list box, when record 6 is written you'll see, records, 3-6 in the list box, etc.
I used SendKeys like so ('li' is the list box index):
If li Mod PageSize = 0 Then
SendKeys "{PGDN}"
End If
But the problem is that if the user interacts with the application at all, this gets messed up. Also, if the app is minimized, then SendKeys affects whatever app the user is currently working with.
In searching the listbox threads I saw a post where the ListBox.SetFocus was done before the SendKeys, but that seems like it that would also interfere if the user had switched to a different app.
Ideas?

DB Form Wizard - Added ADO Combo Box, Need It To Update Text Fields
I used the data form wizard and used an ADO control. I added and filled a combo box, but the code I previously used to update the text fields bound to the recordset using DAO did not work.
For DAO I had:
Code:
Private Sub cboCompany_Change()
datCustomer.Recordset.Bookmark = cboCompany.SelectedItem
End Sub
All I need the ADO combo box to do is when a company is selected, all of the text fields bound to the recordset will be updated with the selected recordset.
Thanks guys.
