Hidding a TListView Column

but resizing is not th solution I want.
Cause like I said, the user can resize the column, even the maxsize is 0

sorry about that my submit was to quick

2. if you just need numbers in the field you can use the .tag properties
  ListView1.Column[0].Tag := 1;
  ListView1.Column[1].Tag := 2;
  ShowMessage(IntToStr(ListView1.Column[0].Tag));
  ShowMessage(IntToStr(ListView1.Column[1].Tag));


3. Create a class which tracks your stuff and pastes it in the listview

Here's the only thing i came up with, if you want to hide column 2 for example then set it's width to 0 and the MaxWidth and MinWidth both to 1 this will stop the user from being able to resize the column.. The only drawback is that you see a 1px break between column 1 and three but i didn't find it particular disturbing.. Oh yeah, showing the column can afcourse be done by resetting the size and making MinWidth and MaxWidth their original values :-)

Dj, I already tryed what you said but
The user can resize the colum  and see the data of this with the mouse.

Think that I have to find a special component like joepezt said

Cause like this, the user can chose what column he want to see,
But the data are important for me.

The solution of a second ListView wich woulb be invisible for storing the data, will be my last chance if i can't do wath I want to.

What version of delphi are you running, because i tried it again just now and the user cannot resize the column ( i am running version 7)..
Dj

I use Delphi 7

here is my code:

listview1.Column[1].MinWidth := 0;
listview1.Column[1].MaxWidth := 1;
listview1.Column[1].Width := 0;

if the mouse is maintained clicked, the column is resized

to quote rietbergdj, he said minwidth should be 1, not zero :)

Doesn't really matter

it's the same

Even checking the docs it says that with MinWidth = Maxwidth resizing isn't possible, i find it strange that in the same version, it works for me but not for you, can you give me some of the surrounding code you have so i can have a look??
Dj

here is the code:
listview1.Column[1].MinWidth := 0;
listview1.Column[1].MaxWidth := 1;
listview1.Column[1].Width := 0;

the columns can't be resized, but if the user keep the left mouse button, he can see the column.
when the button is up, the column return to 0.

I didn't want the column resized even when mouse button is pressed, but the column have to exists

Sorry but I think this
question has no answer.

I let it here, if someone find the way to do it, the points are for him or her ;-)
