ListView Icons

[flann]

I'm trying to create a listview that will display files from a directory and show them as icons.

Dim s As String
ListView1.Clear()

Dim strFiles As String() = Directory.GetFiles(TreeView1.SelectedNode.Text)
For Each s In strFiles
ListView1.Items.Add(s)
ListView1.View = View.SmallIcon
Next


What else do I need to do to make it actually display an icon? It does display the file name, but it is in text, not an icon.

I got my Icon to show up, but I can't seem to figure out how to get the pdf file to open?

		Dim s As String
		Dim imageListLarge As New ImageList
		ListView1.Clear()
		imageListLarge.Images.Add(Bitmap.FromFile("c:\PDFFile.ico"))
		ListView1.LargeImageList = imageListLarge

		Dim strFiles As String() = Directory.GetFiles(TreeView1.SelectedNode.Text)
		For Each s In strFiles
			ListView1.Items.Add(s).ImageIndex = 0
			ListView1.View = View.LargeIcon
			ListView1.LabelEdit = True
		Next

Dim myProcess as Process = Process.Start("C:\myPDF.pdf")
this code will open the pdf file

Cheers

I understand how to get the .pdf file to start by manually putting in a string, but I do I get the index value of the selected item?

I'm trying this..

Dim oProcess As System.Diagnostics.Process
		Dim x As Integer
		x = ListView1.SelectedItems.IndexOf
		oProcess.Start(strFiles(x))
