ListView_DeleteColumns Method

Description

This method will delete the columns specified in a list in the ListView control.

Parameters

MyControlReference
Reference to the control in the form of MyProject_MyForm_MyControl.
ProjectFile
String identifying the project as it was passed in LoadProject.
DialogName
String identifying the dialog by name.
ControlName
String identifying the control by name.
nColIndexX
Integer specifying the Xth column to delete.

Return Values

Returns the following according to the situation:

  • T when successful.
  • Nil if the control is not found or does not support this function.

AutoLISP Syntax

The recommended convention is passing the control identifier directly:

CopyCode imageCopy Code
(Odcl_ListView_DeleteColumns 
		MyControlReference [as Reference]
		(list 
			nColIndex1 [as Integer]
			nColIndex2 [as Integer]
			nColIndex3 [as Integer]
			...
			nColIndexN [as Integer]
		)
	)

An alternative convention is to identify the control by providing the project file, the dialog name and the control name:

CopyCode imageCopy Code
(Odcl_ListView_DeleteColumns
		ProjectFile [as String]
		DialogName [as String]
		ControlName [as String]
		(list 
			nColIndex1 [as Integer]
			nColIndex2 [as Integer]
			nColIndex3 [as Integer]
			...
			nColIndexN [as Integer]
		)
	)

Remarks

Please create lists as follows using the list keyword:

(list (list x y ...) (list x y ...) ...)
		

It seems that ObjectARX does not always handle lists created as follows:

'(x y ...) (x y ...) ...  
		

Applies For

ListView.

Example

CopyCode imageCopy Code
; Delete the second and third column
(Odcl_ListView_DeleteColumns MyProject_MyForm_MyControl
	(list 2 1) 
	)
