Sorry, but if you want help then you need to provide full details of your problem in the question. And saying, "not working", is no help at all; we cannot guess what that could mean.

IT_i 27-Sep-20 7:13am

Now my side Columns Filter icon and filter box click not working.

The person who wrote the article (ListViewFilter Control for .NET[^]) has not been active here for more than 15 years. So it is unlikely that you will get much assistance with this.

So you found some (old) code at: [^] for a very complex sub-classed ListView that makes heavy use of the Win API.

Now, you want us to wade into it, and add new features ? And, all you have done is look at the source-code ?

Here are your solutions:

0 study the Control and figure out how to add new features.

1 research CP and StackOverFlow for other, newer, articles on sorting the ListView, or other custom controls.

2 hire a programmer.

OriginalGriff · Answer 2 · 2020-09-27T01:22:00

I'm not downloading random zip files, nor would I wade through your whole code looking for the relevant parts if I did.
I don't follow link shorteners either: you never know where you will end up, or what you will find there.

If you want help, describe your problem in detailed English, post relevant fragments of your code and explain what it does that you didn't expect, or didn't do that you did.

Think about what you are asking: remember that we can't see your screen, access your HDD, or read your mind - we only get exactly what you type to work with.
So if you tell us "it's not working" that means nothing to us: we have no idea what you expected it to do, or any way to run your code and find out what it actually did.

Asking questions is a skill and it's worth you learning how to do that. There is nowhere near enough information here for us to begin to help you - we have no idea what you are trying to do, or where you are starting from.

We don't even have any idea where you are stuck, or what help you might need - and that's kinda important, don't you think?

Start here: Asking questions is a skill[^] and think about what you need to know, and what you need to tell us in order to get help.

Then help us to help you!
