I have a column in a listview ( not a Stratalistview )  that may not be relevant depending on how I pull the data.  If not, I would like to set its width to 0.

I thought I could say

this.lvCompare.Columns["colMyCol"].Width = 0;

but it tells me it is not set to an instance of an object.  I tried it after the requery but no luck

In debugger I see no properties exposed at all on the columns collection. 

What's the trick.?   Anyone have an example of how to do this? 

( remember, traditional SF listview,not Stratalistview )

TIA
