Related Subreddits. Hello, so my problem is with the ListView Subitems. I have a ListView called lstEmployees which adds the information for a user-entered employee into columns (First Name, Last Name, Hours Worked, etc.) I'm trying to add a button on my Windows Forms App (.NET Framework) that when clicked, will ask the user for input of the search term (InputBox).
I want the button to be able to use the search to search by Last Name only. So I figure that it should be limiting the search to the last name column and would use a.Contains method: lstEmployees.Columns(1).Contains(search term) Now I'm aware that this doesn't work, but I'm not sure what to do instead. The contains method requires a value as Object, and won't allow searches by strings at all. Furthermore, the lstEmployees.Columns portion is also wrong. I've also tried naming the column within the code itself, rather than through the design mode editor, but I can't seem to figure out a way to specify the search to this individual column, while also searching by a string at all. Any help is appreciated!

SubItems Property Once additional columns have been added to a ListView, those columns can be accessed through the SubItems property of a ListItem. The text that appears in a column for a particular ListItem can be read or set using: Msgbox ListView1.ListItems(1).SubItems(2) For this example the above code will display the text that appears in the third column, SubItems(2), of the first ListItem, ListItems(1). ItemClick Event Most code associated with a ListView control appears in either the ItemClick event or the ColumnClick event. The ItemClick event occurs when the user clicks on a ListItem within the ListView control. The ListItem that was clicked will be passed into the event as an argument. The ItemClick event occurs only when an item in the list is clicked.

If the user clicks anywhere in the ListView control other than on an item, the regular Click event is fired. ColumnClick Event. The ColumnClick event is fired when the user clicks on the column header of the ListView. The ColumnHeader object that was clicked is passed into the event as an argument. The code that is typically placed in the ColumnClick event is the code to sort the ListItems by that column.
This is the normal behavior expected by users in the Windows environment. The ColumnHeaders is one-based, meaning that the first column in the ColumnHeaders collection has an index of 1. The SortKey property, however, uses 0 as the index for the first key. Therefore if you want to match up a ColumnHeader with its corresponding SortKey, you must subtract 1 from the ColumnHeader index, as in Listing 4.4. LISTING 4.4 MATCHING A COLUMNHEADER WITH ITS CORRESPONDING SORTKEY Private Sub ListView1ColumnClick (ByVal ColumnHeader As ComctlLib.ColumnHeader) 'Change the SortKey of the ListView 'to correspond to the SubItem in the just-clicked ColumnHeader 'MsgBox ColumnHeader.Index ListView1.SortKey = ColumnHeader.Index - 1 ListView1.Sorted = True End Sub ListView Control topics.
