I have been struggling with this for a while. When my window opens,
the listbox is empty of content yet, but I still want it to show
which column is sorted and what the sort order is. On Mac OS X this
is denoted by the column heading being blue. I seem to remember
that with RB 5.5 I was able to make my listbox header look sorted
by calling PressHeader but for some reason I'm unable to make this
work now with 2006r4.
The official method is to do this:
MyListbox.ColumnSortDirection(0) = Listbox.SortAscending
MyListbox.SortedColumn = 0
MyListbox.Sort()
But I have this code in the Open event of my window and the window
still comes up with the listbox without sorted header.
Any other idea everyone?
I should mention that I searched the archives and that there are
many results, but none that is a decisive answer. Mostly the usual
answer is to do the above, but that doesn't solve the header look
problem.
You need to set the HeadingIndex property. Setting it appears to
have the same effect as clicking the header, including called the
HeaderPressed event handler. Note that the documentation describes
this property as "obsolete", so you might consider making a feature
request for the behavior you need.
