listview

[vin]

Hi,

I have a listview and I add items like this

myLV.AddItem ,"k1", "Hello"
myLV.AddItem ,"k2", "Hi"
myLV.AddItem ,"k2", "etc."
...

then I want to find an item using the key.

I realize I can iterate all items one by one,
but is there faster way to find an item by key?

thanks.

What listview control are you using? The one I have (Microsoft's) doesn't have an AddItem method???

ok, my mistake, in my post instead of

myLV.AddItem ,"k1", "Hello"
myLV.AddItem ,"k2", "Hi"
myLV.AddItem ,"k2", "etc."

I should have written


myLV.ListItems.Add ,"k1", "Hello"
myLV.ListItems.Add ,"k2", "Hi"
myLV.ListItems.Add ,"k2", "etc."

I think it can be used interchangeably anytime you would normally use the "index" parameter as in:


private Sub Command1_Click()
MsgBox ListView1.ListItems("K2").Text
End Sub

private Sub Form_Load()
ListView1.ListItems.Add , "K1", "One"
ListView1.ListItems.Add , "K2", "Two"
ListView1.ListItems.Add , "K3", "Three"
End Sub

You are quite right,
