Examples

The following code example demonstrates a checked ListView control that handles the ListView.ItemChecked event. The method uses the CurrentValue and Index properties of the ItemCheckEventArgs object to retrieve and tally the price of the menu items selected. To run this example paste the following code in a form containing a ListView named ListView1 and a TextBox named Textbox1. Call the InitializeListView method from the form's constructor or Load method. Ensure all events are associated with their event-handling methods.
