Re: Alternate background color in a listview

Hi Palli,

I didn't realize this was a "bad practice" way of accomplishing this. I have an application where I am doin exactly what Benjamin describes. I run through the items in the ListView, every other row I assign a different color. In my routine that sorts the ListView on column click I simply call the "Colorize" function again.

Works great for me.

Hi guys,

If you are ok with calling the coloring procedure as a part of the Column click procedure, that is fine and yes it works of course.

You might want to make some extra arrangement though if you do have a paged listview with a LOT of rows in the datasource. That's where it might get a little impractical to call the Colorize function, unless you take the paging into account.
