Try

C#

private void listView_ColumnWidthChanging(object sender, ColumnWidthChangingEventArgs e)
{
    e.Cancel = true;
    e.NewWidth = listView.Columns[e.ColumnIndex].Width;
}

Solution 5

You cannot do this with a ListView. You should use a DataGridView and Set the Columns Resizable Property to false in the columns editor.

Hope this helps
