Question

I’m writing a Phone Book application.

I have a listview in which you can view the saved data in the database. I want to add an edit option.

More specifically: When I mark a row in the table with subscribers and phone numbers and hit the Edit button a window with two text boxes is shown on the screen. In the first text box is the name and in the second – a phone number of the marked entry.

Can you tell me how to do that?

Answer 1

you can do like this…

Yes, but TextBox and ListView are in different windows and I cannot
access it each other

in form2 drag and drop two textboxes and do like this….

Just create a property on the Form2 class and set it before you show Form2.

public class Form2
{
    public string Name
    {
        get { return textbox1.Text; }
        set { textbox1.Text = value; }
    }
    public string phonenumber
    {
        get { return textbox2.Text; }
        set { textbox2.Text = value; }

    }

 }

public class Form1
{

  private void btnedit_Click(object sender, eventargs e)
  {
      for (int i = 0; i < lv.Items.Count; i++)
      {
        // is i the index of the row you selected?
        if (lv.Items[i].Selected == true)
        {  
          //I show here the second field text (SubItems[1].Text) from the selected row(Items[i]) 
                Message.Show(lv.Items[i].SubItems[1].Text);
                break;
        }            
      }
      Form2 frm2 = new Form2();
      frm2.Name= text1;
      frm2.phonenumber = text2;
      frm2.Show();
      this.Hide();  //// if you want to hide the form1
    }
  }
}

I hope it will helps you….
