Highlighted A Selected Line In A Textbox
Hello,

I would like to know if it is possible to create a textbox in Visual Basic such that whenever I select/clicked on a certain line, I am able to highlight that whole line and know the contents of that line selected?

Sounds rather simple but seems quite complex to implement.

Thanks in advance!

Listview - Keeping Row Highlighted
Don't know if this is possible, or if it's too much work for the return, but ...

I have a listview and when the user selects a row, in this case a members details, the row is highlighted (fullrowselect)
Then, if the user selects to remove this row there is a msgbox to confirm the deletion.
When the message box is displayed, the row highlight dissapears.
Can I get it so the highlight stays?

I have the code to reselect the highlight if the msgbox cancel button is selected.

Keep Listview Selected Item Selected
I've been searching the site this morning and I've seen this question asked numerous times and the answer appears to be no. I thought I'd try again in case there is a fresh set of eyes out there.

I'm working on a preexisting production form and the person that designed it coded a series of combo boxes next to a series of listviews as user controls. When a combo box loses focus the selected item remains the default selected blue color. When the listview loses focus the selected item's color is a light gray.

I would like the listview selected item to remain blue like the combo boxes so the appearance is uniform.

The user community has lived with this for quite some time so I can't justify the time to rework the form. But if someone knows how to keep the selected item blue when the listview loses focus I'll plug it in though.

How To Set The Selected Row In A Listview
I have a listview where I need to be able to set the selected row to the last row selected by the user.

Is this possible? If so how?

ListView: Selected Row
I have a row selected in my listview. How can I reference the items in the selected row so that I may populate another form with those values? Basically I'm trying to select a row for editing, and when they click on the Edit button display another form with the selected record displayed. I'm guessing I can just populate the fields on the 2nd form with 'formname.txtbox.text' or something similar? Any suggestions would be great!!

Thanks,
Greg

Listview Selected Item
How can i get the selected item of a listview in another form ???

I have tried with this code:

Code:
Public Function geselecteerdLid() As Integer
Dim iLidID As Integer
Dim oItem As ListViewItem
For Each oItem In lvwLeden.SelectedItems
iLidID = Convert.ToInt32(oItem.Text)
Return iLidID
Next
End Function
and in another form i refer to this with

Code:
Private Sub btnOk_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnOk.Click
Dim oForm As New frmLid
MessageBox.Show(oForm.geselecteerdLid)
End Sub
the result of this is always 0, i guess this is because i make an object of the form where my listview is (frmLid)

Listview - Selected Item
Dear All,

I have an access DB connected to a Treeview and a listview.

Navigation is done by ADO unbound.

How do I connect the highlighted item in the listview with a particular database recordset?

Say for example:

I click on the Next_Record button I would like the Cursor (Highlighted blue area) to move to the next record displayed in the listview corresponding to the correct database record.

Prev_Record button will move the blue highlighted area one position up in the listview and so forth...

Any ideas?

TIA

Listview Selected Listitem

I want to the selected listitem retain the selected item in the listview when I check the checkbox to true.

Check If Nothing Is Selected In Listview
I am using this code to check if any record has been selected in a listview, which works, except that now, the first column is just icons, and it always returns lvwItem = Nothing, even if a record is selected.
Is this because the text is in the second column?

Code:
Set lvwItem = lvwToDo.HitTest(x, y)

If Not lvwItem Is Nothing Then
lngToDoSelection = lvwToDo.SelectedItem.SubItems(2)
End If

Keep Row Selected After Reload (Listview)
I cannot find the correct way of doing this, although I have tried almost everything I can think of.

I have a listview with a selected record. This row is stored in 'lngRec' in the Listview_Click, subitem(19) is a hidden column that stores the primary key from the database.
I am using the following:

Code:
lngRec = lvwShowAll.SelectedItem.SubItems(19)

Now, I clear the listview, and then reload it with a recordset, sorting by dates.

What I cannot seem to work out is how to have the same record selected, even though it is in a different position.

Listview Selected Question
lets say i have about 50 entries in the listview and i refresh the box every 60 secnds..

how can i stop this? how can i stop the listview from scrolling when i refresh it?

ListView Selected Item!
In a WebBrowser project, a ListView acts as the history window. This ListView comes up when the History button is clicked. Each URL is represented in the ListView by the title of that URL (like IE). For e.g. if the user has visited http://www.yahoo.com, it's title i.e. Yahoo! will get listed in the history ListView. Users have been given the option to delete any URL/s from the ListView.

Assume that currently I am viewing http://www.yahoo.com. If the history ListView is now invoked, Yahoo! will be highlighted in the ListView (since I am presently viewing http://www.yahoo.com). Suppose I delete any other URL in the ListView. Under such circumstances, the very first URL gets highlighted in the ListView but I want Yahoo! to remain highlighted in the ListView after that URL is deleted from. How do I accomplish this?

ListView Selected Item!
In a WebBrowser project, I am using a ListView which acts as a "history" window (like how IE opens a side-window when the history icon is clicked on the toolbar). As is evident, the ListView lists all the URLs that a user has visited.

When I click an item in the ListView, I want that after the appropriate web page gets downloaded completely, the item selected should remain highlighted which is why I have set the ListView's HideSelection property to False.

Assume that I click the 5th item in the ListView. When I do so, the selected URL gets highlighted & the browser navigates to the corresponding URL but after the web page gets downloaded completely, the first item in the ListView gets highlighted but I want the item that was clicked by the user should remain highlighted after the web page loads completely. In other words, I want the 5th item in the ListView to remain highlighted after the web page loads (since I had clicked the 5th item in the ListView). How do I implement this?

Whenever the ListView loads, the first item in the ListView is seen highlighted (as HideSelection is set to False) but I don't want the 1st item (or for that matter, any of the items) in the ListView to get highlighted whenever the ListView loads i.e. none of the items should be highlighted whenever the ListView loads. How do I do this?
