Reference Columns by name also in the ListView.RowPopulating

It would be really helpful and safer to be able to reference a column by its name instead of the index in the ListView.RowPopulating event.

Ex Current code:
[code][quote]
Private Sub VendorsBrowseDialog_RowPopulating(ByVal e As MicroFour.StrataFrame.UI.Windows.Forms.RowPopulatingEventArgs) Handles MyBase.RowPopulating
'-- Strong type the passed business object
With CType(e.BusinessObject, CardTrackingSystem.Business.bizVendor)
e.UseGroup = True
e.GroupHeaderText = MicroFour.StrataFrame.Tools.Common.GetEnumDisplayValue(.VendorType)

'-- Show the Inactive Status with a red color
If .IsInactive Then
e.RowForeColor = Drawing.Color.Red
[b] e.Values(4).DisplayValue = "Yes"[/b]
Else
[b] e.Values(4).DisplayValue = String.Empty[/b]
End If
End With
End Sub
[/quote][/code]

Ex Suggested code:
[code][quote]
Private Sub VendorsBrowseDialog_RowPopulating(ByVal e As MicroFour.StrataFrame.UI.Windows.Forms.RowPopulatingEventArgs) Handles MyBase.RowPopulating
'-- Strong type the passed business object
With CType(e.BusinessObject, CardTrackingSystem.Business.bizVendor)
e.UseGroup = True
e.GroupHeaderText = MicroFour.StrataFrame.Tools.Common.GetEnumDisplayValue(.VendorType)

'-- Show the Inactive Status with a red color
If .IsInactive Then
e.RowForeColor = Drawing.Color.Red
[b] e.Values("VendorIsInactive").DisplayValue = "Yes"[/b]
Else
[b] e.Values("VendorIsInactive").DisplayValue = String.Empty[/b]
End If
End With
End Sub
[/quote][/code]
