ListView and Cell Colors

Bill Cunnien — Wed, 22 Apr 2009 15:33:54 GMT

I searched these forums but could not find an answer...it has probably been covered already, so I apologize for the duplicate question.

My ListView shows a due date for a packing list item. I would like the due date to appear red in the ListView if the due date is before the ship date on the packing list. How do I isolate the cell in order to make the foreground color set to red?

Thanks,
Bill

Glad it worked for you too.

Ok...I can get the whole row to work. Too bad a cell cannot be singled out. One day, when I have a little extra time, I will replace that ListView with the EnhancedListView. That'll give me what I am looking for, I'm sure.

Thanks, Edhy!

Hi Bill,
I don't think the ListView supports that. What you can do is handle the condition in the ListView.RowPopulating() event and change the color of the whole row or add/change an icon in that row.

[code][codesnippet][p]
Private Sub lstContacts_RowPopulating(ByVal e As MicroFour.StrataFrame.UI.Windows.Forms.RowPopulatingEventArgs) Handles lstContacts.RowPopulating
Dim bo As bizContacts = DirectCast(e.BusinessObject, bizContacts)

e.UseGroup = True

'-- Show the Inactive Status with a friendly text
If bo.RequestServiceAuthorized Then
e.GroupHeaderText = "Request Service Authorized"
e.RowForeColor = Color.Green
Else
e.GroupHeaderText = "Non-Authorized"
End If

'-- If inactive, set the forecolor red.
If bo.ContactIsInactive = True Then
e.RowForeColor = Color.Red
End If
End Sub
