QListView::findItem() should do the trick:
QListViewItem * QListView::findItem ( const QString & text, int column, ComparisonFlags compare = ExactMatch | CaseSensitive ) const Finds the first list view item in column column, that matches text and returns the item, or returns 0 of no such item could be found. Pass OR-ed together Qt::StringComparisonMode values in the compare flag, to control how the matching is performed. The default comparison mode is case-sensitive, exact match. //Fredrik _______________________________________________ PyKDE mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mats.gmd.de/mailman/listinfo/pykde
