TListView subitems

[801119]

Greetings all...

I'm so tried that I can't think correct at the moment (it's 0100 |-I ) and I was wondering if it's possible to extract info from just 1 of the subitmes in a TlistView?
I could desperately need something else then SubString.. I'm so sick and tired of it! X-) My codes look like something a kid wrote
I have absolutely no idea what I am talking about
Somehow I still manage to make it work

Are you looking for something like:

 String Something = ListView1->Items->Item[0]->Caption;

?

No, not really.... lets say that you have a TListView with 1 item in it and 3 columns looking something like this

------------------------------------
Name        |     Size |      Date |
------------------------------------
Hello.com        300 kb  2001-02-03

It was added using this code

TListItem *pItem;
pItem = FileList->Items->Add();
pItem->Caption = ffblk.ff_name;
pItem->SubItems->Add( "300 kb" );
pItem->SubItems->Add( "2001-02-03" );

and when I select the Item I want to find either the first or second SubItem (or anyother, if more exists)
But the only code I've know of that takes the subitem text is FileList->Selected->SubItems->GetText() My codes look like something a kid wrote

Greetinx!

SubItems property is the TStrings ancestor so it has a property which gain access to any of sub string in that TString object. Name of this propeety is *Strings*. I think what you can access of your either *Size* or *Date* column value using record of *FileList->Selected->SubItems->Strings[0]* or *FileList->Selected->SubItems->Strings[1]* consequently. Happy programming!))
