Listview Column Editor

The Listview Column Editor allows maintenance of columns within a listview. The editor consists of two lists and seven buttons.

The edit window may be resized and a splitter is available to allow resizing the columns list.

Editor Lists

The list on the left side of the editor shows any defined columns. The list on right shows the selected column's properties. The selected column is highlighted in the left hand list titled "Columns" and may be changed by clicking the desired column.

OK

The OK button signals that modifications to the listview are complete and the listview is updated. The editor is then closed.

Cancel

The Cancel button indicates that any modifications to the listview should be discarded and the editor closed.

Add

The Add button inserts a new column into the listview. The column name defaults to Column{nn} where {nn} is a sequential value.

Remove

The Remove button deletes the selected column from the listview.

Load

The Load button allows selection of a previously saved set of column definitions. The Load/Save feature allows the definition of a set of columns that can then be used in multiple forms promoting consistency and speeding form creation. Note that upon selecting the Load function, any previously defined listview columns are removed before the new columns are added.

Store

The Store button saves the current listview column definitions. Once selected, the user is prompted for a unique name to identify the definition set. The listview column definitions are then saved for future use in other forms.

Help

The Help button displays this page in a new window.

Up and Down

The Up and Down Arrow buttons located between the two lists of the editor allows changing of the position of the selected column.
