Well, Captain Obvious says: define ItemTemplate:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.web.ui.webcontrols.listview.itemtemplate.aspx,
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.web.ui.webcontrols.listview.aspx.

Search for ItemTemplate in the second article referenced above, to see how to use it.
