I just switched out my code for sorting on a listview and used the built in capabilities, and suddenly my form takes 4 years to load as the LV control sorts every item over and over everytime there is an addition. Doh!

So, I switch off autocolumnsoft and zoom, done in 2 seconds. So, I am now doing an order by from my proc, but it orders on the second column of the listview, is there any chance of being able to set the column that the sort is done on when the lv control is first drawn?

thanks

Geoff.
