            foreach (DataRow myrow in dt.Rows)
            {
                ListViewItem lItem = new ListViewItem();
                lItem.UseItemStyleForSubItems = false;
                lItem = listviewTargets.Items.Insert(iRecords, Date.ToString());
                //Note in the above line "Date.ToString" is written
                lItem.UseItemStyleForSubItems = false;
                // listviewTargets.Items.Add(myrow[2].ToString());
                lItem.SubItems.Add(myrow[0].ToString());
                lItem.SubItems.Add(myrow[3].ToString());
                lItem.SubItems.Add(myrow[14].ToString());
                lItem.SubItems.Add(myrow[4].ToString(), Color.White, Color.Green, lItem.Font);
                lItem.SubItems.Add(myrow[6].ToString());
                lItem.SubItems.Add(myrow[7].ToString());
                lItem.SubItems.Add(myrow[8].ToString());
                lItem.SubItems.Add(myrow[9].ToString());
                iRecords++;
                lItem = listviewTargets.Items.Insert(iRecords, "");
                lItem.UseItemStyleForSubItems = false;

                //iRecords = iRecords - 1;
               // lItem.SubItems.Add("");
                lItem.SubItems.Add("");
                lItem.SubItems.Add("");
                lItem.SubItems.Add("");
                lItem.SubItems.Add(myrow[5].ToString(), Color.White, Color.Red, lItem.Font);
                lItem.SubItems.Add(myrow[10].ToString());
                lItem.SubItems.Add(myrow[11].ToString());
                lItem.SubItems.Add(myrow[12].ToString());
                lItem.SubItems.Add(myrow[13].ToString());
                iRecords++;
            }
            //  gv_ViewAllEntries.DataSource = ds.Tables["MyTable"];
            con.Close();
