I do not have access to a dev system at the moment, but MSDN indicates that ListView.ForeColor and ListView.BackColor are supported by the Compact Framework. If this is true, then... myListView.ForeColor = Color.Red; myListView.BackColor = Color.Blue; ListViewItem item = myListView.Items.Add("Item1"); item.ForeColor = Color.Green; item.BackColor = Color.Cyan;
i would suggect making a custom class, inheriting from windows.forms.components.listview , the owner draw the parts you need the colour to change on, and make properties so you can specify the colours :) http://www.guardian.co.nr
