ListView Control with Check Boxes

[zeevid]

I have a listview with many items and columns. I want one column to be represented by a check box. If the user clicks the check box, then the corresponding field will be set to true, and if the user unchecks the box, the field will be set to false. I also want to be able to disable the checkbox if user has processed this record already, so the checkbox is only an inforfmation item (either checked or unchecked from the previous action).

So, does anyone have any example code or know how to place a checkbox in a listview in a specific column and to do the enabling/disabling of the checkbox, etc?

Thank you as always,

Dan

Not sure about enableing/disabeling the checkbox but here is a example (from the help file) of a listview with checkbox

expandcollapse popup

#include <GuiListView.au3>

Opt('MustDeclareVars', 1)

$Debug_LV = False ; Check ClassName being passed to ListView functions, set to True and use a handle to another control to see it work

_Main()

Func _Main()
    Local $exStyles = BitOR($LVS_EX_FULLROWSELECT, $LVS_EX_CHECKBOXES), $hListView

    GUICreate("ListView Set Item Checked State", 400, 300)
    $hListView = GUICtrlCreateListView("", 2, 2, 394, 268)
    _GUICtrlListView_SetExtendedListViewStyle($hListView, $exStyles)
    GUISetState()

    ; Add columns
    _GUICtrlListView_AddColumn($hListView, "Column 1", 100)
    _GUICtrlListView_AddColumn($hListView, "Column 2", 100)
    _GUICtrlListView_AddColumn($hListView, "Column 3", 100)

    ; Add items
    _GUICtrlListView_AddItem($hListView, "Row 1: Col 1", 0)
    _GUICtrlListView_AddSubItem($hListView, 0, "Row 1: Col 2", 1)
    _GUICtrlListView_AddSubItem($hListView, 0, "Row 1: Col 3", 2)
    _GUICtrlListView_AddItem($hListView, "Row 2: Col 1", 1)
    _GUICtrlListView_AddSubItem($hListView, 1, "Row 2: Col 2", 1)
    _GUICtrlListView_AddItem($hListView, "Row 3: Col 1", 2)

    ; Check item 2
    _GUICtrlListView_SetItemChecked($hListView, 1)
    MsgBox(4160, "Information", "Item 2 Checked: " & _GUICtrlListView_GetItemChecked($hListView, 1))

    ; Loop until user exits
    Do
    Until GUIGetMsg() = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
    GUIDelete()
EndFunc   ;==>_Main

Not quite right! your code is listviewitem, not the header!
