How to add list items to a ListView in C#winform?

c#, listview, winforms

Solution

To make it multicolumn: 1) set the ListView into Details mode:

    listView1.View = View.Details;

2)set up your three columns:

    listView1.Columns.Add("Column1Name");
    listView1.Columns.Add("Column2Name");
    listView1.Columns.Add("Column3Name");

3) add your items:

    listView1.Items.Add(new ListViewItem(new string[]{"John dsfsfsdfs ", "1" , "100"}));

4) To make it more viewable try:

listView1.GridLines = true;

5) To hide columns headers:

 listView1.HeaderStyle = System.Windows.Forms.ColumnHeaderStyle.None;

Problem

I have a list of objects. I want to add these items to a ListView. I'm trying to add each list item row wise but format is very bad, it should be in proper table type format. ``` List<string> lst = new List<string>(); lst.Add("John dsfsfsdfs " + "1" + 100); lst.Add("Smith sdfsdfsdfs" + "2" + 120); lst.Add("Cait dsffffffffffffffffffffff" + "3" + 97); lst.Add("Irene" + "4" + 100); lst.Add("Ben" + "5" + 100); lst.Add("Deniel jjhkh " + "6" + 88); foreach(string pl in lst) { listView1.Items.Add(pl); } ``` Items are not visible and it should be in proper format.
