I would like to create a ‘New Document’ dialog similar to the Office 2007

  • 0

I would like to create a ‘New Document’ dialog similar to the Office 2007 style (see pic). I am having trouble with the list shown on the left. I have tried using a ListView control but I can’t figure out how to display the header sections that scroll with the list (e.g. ‘Template Categories’ and ‘Microsoft Office Online’

What is my best option for re-creating this style of list??

I am using .net3.5, VS2008 and winforms (NOT WPF). Am also open to purchasing 3rd party controls if necessary.

    Without having seen the pic (did you forget to include it?), I’m guessing you’re talking about groups within a ListView. This is pretty easy to accomplish.

    Take a look at the MSDN documentation on the ListView.Groups property. Once you’ve defined your groups (“Template Categories” and “Microsoft Office Online” in your example) you can specify a Group on each ListViewItem to make it stay within that group.
