Here is the final code for the program I was working on that allows you to sort a listview on the column that is clicked. I did not take the time to comment it, sorry! ;[ I have modified the sort (a simple change really) so that clicking on the column headers toggles the sort to either ascending or descending. I also included a sample database file so that you won't have to create your own. It contains 864 records so you will be able to get a wide variety of selections. It is important to tell you that I modified the code I sent. It will not pull the information from the server like the original program does, it just pulls it from the hard drive. You MUST run this program with a -t flag (I used this for testing purposes) or the program will not run correctly: Example: perl findata.pl -t If you have any questions about my code, please feel free to ask. If you have any comments or suggestions feel free to tell me. I have not been using the Win32::GUI module for very long so some of my code may be sloppy and not very robust as it should be. There are a few more things I am considering adding: - an icon below the "New Search" button, sort of like an information icon ... "no data loaded", "searching the database", or something along those lines - for some reason the "Stop" button does not work when it is searching through the database, any ideas why? - little up/down arrows applied to column headers (for ascending/descending) to signify what type of sort was applied - I think there was something else but I have totally forgotten ... maybe it will come to me Again, many thanks to everyone for their help. I also hope this will help others who might have some questions about some of the Win32::GUI objects and methods.
