Column selection control needed
-
Hi everybody, I need a control that allows the user to select between n columns to show in a grid / listview. Much like the ones seen in e.g. Outlook where you have a list of available columns in a left hand list and a right hand list with the ones you have selected. In between there is buttons used to move "columns" from one window to the other, one at the time or all of them. I've searched the net, looked through the C# controls list here on CP - but with no luck. Does anybody know of such a control, or is this a candidate for my first CP article ? :) Thanks in advance - have a nice day ! /Jan Do you know why it's important to make fast decisions? Because you give yourself more time to correct your mistakes, when you find out that you made the wrong one. Chris Meech on deciding whether to go to his daughters graduation or a Neil Young concert

You and I must of woke up this morning with the same mission. I'm looking for one of these controls myself in C#. I wrote one (although not as fancy as the one in Outlook) in MFC/C++ years ago and may end up "porting" that one if I can't find one that's already freely available. Let me know what you turn up and I'll do the same.

I haven't seen any controls on CP that do what you are asking so it should be fair game. I had written a control about a year ago doing just this for a project, which was simple enough but I no longer have the source to send you. It should simply be a process of finding the selected items in one side and adding them over to the other - don't forget to remove them from the first side then. If you have any questions feel free to ask. - Nick Parker
