Very cool, didn't know that existed.
Any suggestions, ideas, or 'constructive criticism' are always welcome.

When I start my program, it gives me error on this line.
.SubItems.Add(MyDataReader("A2".ToString))
"Overload resolution failed because no Public "add" can be called with these arguments"
Don't know what hte problem is........
Here are the code
Public Function FillListBox(ByVal Sqlstring As String)
ListBox1.Items.Clear()
ListView1.Items.Clear()
Dim OleDbConn As OleDbConnection = New OleDbConnection(ConnString)
OleDbConn.Open()
Dim MyDataReader As OleDbDataReader
Dim MyOleDbCommand As OleDbCommand = New OleDbCommand()
Dim MyDataSet As DataSet = New DataSet()
Dim MyOleDataAdapter As OleDbDataAdapter = New OleDbDataAdapter()
MyOleDataAdapter.SelectCommand = New OleDbCommand(Sqlstring, OleDbConn)
MyOleDataAdapter.Fill(MyDataSet)
MyOleDbCommand.Connection = (OleDbConn)
MyOleDbCommand.CommandText = Sqlstring
MyDataReader = MyOleDbCommand.ExecuteReader
Do While MyDataReader.Read
ListBox1.Items.Add(MyDataReader("Luidraad"))
Dim MyItem = ListView1.Items.Add(MyDataReader("luidraad".ToString))
With MyItem
.SubItems.Add(MyDataReader("A1".ToString))
.SubItems.Add(MyDataReader("A2".ToString))
.SubItems.Add(MyDataReader("A2".ToString))
.SubItems.Add(MyDataReader("A3".ToString))
.SubItems.Add(MyDataReader("A4".ToString))
.SubItems.Add(MyDataReader("A5".ToString))
.SubItems.Add(MyDataReader("A6".ToString))
.SubItems.Add(MyDataReader("A7".ToString))
.SubItems.Add(MyDataReader("A8".ToString))
.SubItems.Add(MyDataReader("A9".ToString))
.SubItems.Add(MyDataReader("A10".ToString))
End With
Loop
MyDataReader.Close()
OleDbConn.Close()
OleDbConn.Dispose()

.SubItems.Add(MyDataReader("A2".ToString()) 
BTW, "A2" is already a string?

Perhaps:

Hi,
In my application I am trying to export a Crystal Report to a PDF and then use that PDF. But the problem I have is that the export doesn't complete quick enough for my application to use it. Any ideas on the best way to pause my application unitl the export is complete?
Thanks

I take it you are trying to open the PDF but failing because it is still being written to?
What you could do is loop around attempting to open the file. When you manage to open the file you know it is ready. Until then you just loop around again.
Also, be aware that this could potentially introduce an infinite loop in your application if the file handle is never released by Crystal Reports so you will want to build in a time out mechanism so that after attempting for a period of time you give up.

You can 'halt' the current thread, stopping execution of your code (5 seconds in the example below)
System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.Sleep(5000) This will prevent the form from drawing, because your application isn't processing messages. An alternative method would be to put the current time in a variable and enter a loop with a call to Application.DoEvents. Break the loop if a specified amount of time hath expired.
Third possibility is the use of the timer-component
Happy Programming!

Bad solution. Your code assumes that the operation will, forever, take under 5 seconds to complete. A better solution would be to try and open the file with DenyShareAll sharing permissions every so often, say 500 milliseconds, until the file opens. Then you'll know the file is finished writing, no matter how long it takes.

Normally, I'd reply that any working solution isn't bad, but this is a dirty hack and not a solution. The thing is that you notice that 5 seconds isn't always enough, so you extend the period to 10 seconds. That's kinda cool when the task usually finishes within half a second, leaving you to wait for 9,5 seconds every dang time. How often do you come across a place where the application is waiting, no disk-activity and no cpu-activity?
My train of thought departed from the application. What do you do when you can't change the code to send a message to signal an event? It didn't even cross my mind that one could check the object that the application is working on, I just kept thinking on the same track - where the problem arises.
In short, thanks for showing a better option than the quick-and-dirty 'solution'

Hello
Language VB.net Visual Studio 2005
This sounds like it's should be simple, but I've been working on it all night with no joy. Basically, I need to create a DataGridView on the fly and it will contain a column of various website addresses. However, if I use a HyperLinkColumn then I cant get the cells to contain the URLs. Either all the cells contain the same URL, or each cell contains the correct value - but there's no hyperlink. First top solve it get's a beer (as long as they're in Camden)
I've posted my project here: http://www.camdenconsultancyservice.co.uk/Test/Grrrrr.zip
I've pasted the code below ..... now I need to get some sleeeeeeeeeep.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
'---adding columns---
DataGridView1.Columns.Add("ID", "Product ID")
DataGridView1.Columns.Add("Name", "Product Name")
DataGridView1.Columns.Add("Description", "Description")
DataGridView1.Columns.Add("Price", "Price")
'DataGridView1.Columns.Add("Website", "Website")
Dim HyperLinkColumn As New DataGridViewLinkColumn
Dim DataGridViewRow As New DataGridViewRow
With HyperLinkColumn
.Name = "WebsiteColumn"
.HeaderText = "Website"
'.DataPropertyName = "Website" 'this carries the values across
.UseColumnTextForLinkValue = True
'.ReadOnly = False
'.Visible = True
'.Text = "http://www.google.com"
End With
DataGridView1.Columns.Add(HyperLinkColumn)
For i As Integer = 0 To 4
'---create a row---
Dim item As New DataGridViewRow
item.CreateCells(DataGridView1)
With item
.Cells(0).Value = i
.Cells(1).Value = "Product " & i
.Cells(2).Value = "Description of Product " & i
.Cells(3).Value = "99.99"
'.Cells(4).Value = "http://www.evergreenhouse.co.uk" & i
'HyperLinkColumn.Index(i).Text = "http://www.google.co.uk" & i
'HyperLinkColumn.Index(i).Value = "http://www.google.co.uk" & i
HyperLinkColumn.Index
'MsgBox(.Cells(4).Value)
End With
'HyperLinkColumn.Text = "http://www.evergreenhouse.co.uk" & i
'---add the row---
DataGridView1.Rows.Add(item)
Next
End Sub
Private Sub DataGridView1_CellContentClick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.DataGridViewCellEventArgs) Handles DataGridView1.CellContentClick
If DataGridView1.Columns(e.ColumnIndex).GetType Is GetType(DataGridViewLinkColumn) Then
'Open document by Process.Start().
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(DataGridView1(e.ColumnIndex, e.RowIndex).Value.ToString)
End If
End Sub
End Class

OK, this is some really ugly code. I'd recommend using a collection of some kind to hold your data rather than trying to put the data directly into the DGV yourself.
First, you're LinkColumn definition is completely screwed up. It should look something like:
Dim newWebColumn = New DataGridViewLinkColumn
With newWebColumn
' This is the column name in the datatable or
' the property name in the collection that this
' column will get it's data from.
.DataPropertyName = "ProductURL"
.AutoSizeMode = DataGridViewAutoSizeColumnMode.AllCells
.HeaderText = "Web Address"
.ActiveLinkColor = Color.White
.LinkBehavior = LinkBehavior.SystemDefault
.LinkColor = Color.Blue
.Trackvisitedstate = True
.VisitedLinkColor = Color.YellowGreen
.Resizable = DataGridViewTriState.True
.ValueType = GetType(String)
End With
columns.Add(newWebColumn)

Research;

Start with a description of the things that it should be able to do, and the stuff that it's going to persist to disk

Crystal accepts data in many forms. Personally in like to collate the data into a typed dataset and then pass the dataset to crystal.
Writing reports with Crystal is a big topic all of its own, and there are many good books on the subject.

Would you mine sir if may I get your email?

Sorry for that question sir,
by the way sir I'm a first year college student in philippines that
we have to create a simple hotel reservation system with
database.

You should try to Create Report by using PrintDocument Control.
Because CRYSTAL REPORT and Report Viewer are not sutable for VB 6.
Secondly you can use Microsoft Access Report Viewer for Generating Report.
