Hi all,
I use IDE (thanks Judith) and I want to use list view.
Problem 1. I don't understand ListView. I want to read from my EDB and =
put the 1st 2 sequences in columns 1 & 2 respectfuly. Then when a user =
selects an item from the list that whole record would be shown on the =
screen via the EditText boxes
Problem 2. I don't know how to program it with IDE. The example that =
comes with win32lib sets the columns when LV is created. I asume in IDE =
you need to add the columns later by inserting them.
ps Judith if you see this, the problem I have with color coding and =
speed - just a thought have you seen Mikes Editor. If it could be used =
rather than wordpad then it does all the color syntax highlighting for =
you, and is very quick.
thanks Tony Steward

I haven't looked at the IDE yet, but am i to understand we must use
Wordpad for something? I use TextPad here for nearly everything, the only
time i do not use it is when i want to strip *all* RTF formatting and then i
paste thru Notepad. I just don't use Wordpad, i don't like it, and i am sure
my win95 version is obsolete.

Wordpad, Textpad, I could add my favorite editor to the list.
What external editor you want to use should be (nay, must be) configurable
via the UI.
(That's gotta be worth at least 2 cents.)

Kat,
Judith *mentioned* Wordpad, in response to a comment about the editor in the
IDE being slow; she wasn't *suggesting* that anyone use it, though I still
do :)

Hi, Tony,
Sorry you are having problems with IDE.
Many people have asked for IDE to use RichEdit for the editor. Can you run
wordpad, and if so, is to faster on your machine? If it's not then anything
I do in IDE will probably not give you any improvement.

You can input your column titles with the caption attribute in property
window. You would enter something like {"Name","Title"}. To build the LV,
yes, you have to load it just like in the example. You can go to the Editor
for Window1 or whatever you name your window and use the (General) event to
code your additions.

I've not seen Mikes Editor. I use Synth which allows you to build you own
syntax words, completion list, tree view, etc.
What the list missed was a private e-mail from Tony in which I responded
that I *thought* I might try to modify edit.ew to use an external editor but
I'm not too sure I can achieve that. It would be worth the effort if it can
be done, however. It would have to be very flexible to enable the user to
supply the path to his own editor of choice and a filename for retrieving
his text.
