This allows a user to sort the contents of a listview by clicking on a column header in report-mode. Clicking again will sort descending.
Assumes
This assumes that a ListView named 'ListView1' exists on a form, and that code exists to put values into it. Also, the ListView style-property must be 'report'.
Paste the code into the 'General Declarations' area of your form (below any other global declarations you may have) and substitute 'ListView1' with the name of your listview.
VBcodersDim iCol As Integer
Private Sub ListView1_ColumnClick(ByVal ColumnHeader As_ MSComctlLib.ColumnHeader)
' When a ColumnHeader object is clicked, the ListView control is
' sorted by the subitems of that column.
' Set the SortKey to the Index of the ColumnHeader - 1
If ColumnHeader.Index - 1 <> iCol Then
ListView1.SortOrder = 0
Else
ListView1.SortOrder = Abs(ListView1.SortOrder - 1)
End If
ListView1.SortKey = ColumnHeader.Index - 1
' Set Sorted to True to sort the list.
ListView1.Sorted = True
iCol = ColumnHeader.Index - 1
End Sub
