I'm attempting to produce a listview that I can use with my dataset that when a column in my dataset has a value of say "complete" will show that specific ROW a different color than the rest of the rows in the listview allowing for easier readability for the user.
I'm thinking about looping the data from my dataset to the listview's collection and then running logic on the items after the items populate when the control is loaded, would this be best or is there some other way I could do this using binding or without extracting the dataset??
Heres my code so far?
XAML
P.S I'm also having a blonde moment on how to loop my dataset to the listview control...

Private Sub loadtasks() lv1.DataContext = Nothing Dim cmd As SqlCommand Dim sql As String = "Select ID, Priority, Description, Status, Show from Tasks" Dim dstasks As New DataSet cmd = New SqlCommand(sql, constr) Dim adapter As New SqlDataAdapter() adapter.SelectCommand = cmd adapter.Fill(dstasks, "Tasks1") 'lv1.DataContext = dstasks 'loop would go here For Each lvi As ListViewItem In lv1.Items If lvi.Content = "Completed" Then lvi.Foreground = Brushes.Gray End If Next
XAML
<ListView x:Name="lv1" AlternationCount="2" HorizontalAlignment="Left" Height="787" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="648" Margin="121,104,0,0" ItemsSource="{Binding}" SelectionMode="Single" ScrollViewer.HorizontalScrollBarVisibility="Disabled"> <ListView.View> <GridView AllowsColumnReorder="False"> <GridViewColumn Header="Priority" Width="60" DisplayMemberBinding="{Binding Path=Priority}"/> <GridViewColumn Header="Description" Width="450" DisplayMemberBinding="{Binding Path=Description}"/> <GridViewColumn Header="Status" Width="133" DisplayMemberBinding="{Binding Path=Status}"/> </GridView> </ListView.View> </ListView>
