I am not sure, but ListView <> TreeView...

Hi Eric,

I did misread me I thought really it was the listview

No extra creditcard for Herfried,

But there are listview things also on that page

Sorry

Hi Eric,

If you wanted a Simple Answer!

Just add a Property to your inheriting class.

Public Class MyObj
Inherits ListView

Private _myProp as Object
Public Property MyProp as Object
Get
Return _myProp
End Get
Set (Value as Object)
_myProp = Value
End Set
End Property

End Class

My Property will now be visible in the Designer, after compiled of course..

Also you can add and checkout

Imports System.ComponentModel

Then above your property type <

This will present a list of things you can assign for your property,
Some usefull one's from the designer's point of view are, DefaultValue,
Browsable, Category

There should be some doc under ComponentModel.

If you need any more help then please ask.

Thank you much! I thought I had done this a couple times... I wonder if I forgot to recompile :)

At any rate, late me tell you something else I am trying to do: in my extended listview, I would like to use extended column headers, and add them at design timejust like you would through ColumnHeaders Collection Property (click on the elipses by 'Columns' in the properties window). If I drop my extended listview onto a test form, and click on the columns elipses, I can add a normal listview header... how to make it add an extended listview header?

I have set up an eColumnHeader class... but confused where to go from here.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Eric
