Look into System.Drawing.Image.Save and System.Drawing.Image.FromFile. That's all you'll be getting from me though. "Give me solution" is hardly acceptable post content - its rude and rather annoying. Besides, the only person who can help you now is a shrink

You already asked this question yesterday

You didn't even bother to read those reply's did you, hell all you did is switch the subject and content. And if you did read the reply's you either didn't understand them or you chose to simply ignore them.
If you didn't understand them what make's you think you'll understand it now?

'give me solution' sounds allot like an order, I don't take orders from forums (neither does anyone else around here)

hmmm what would help? reading a book? maybe about c#?

Im trying to learn how to attach a file to the form..The idea
is, the user can not only add a record but will also be able to add an
attachment for that particular record....lets say I would like to add
an excel or word doc...this has nothing to do with sending attachments
and emails and stuff like that...just attaching a file to the form...

plz help!

You may use the DataGridViewImageColumn to add a small picture and write a delegate to open a file you wish to open, when the picture is clicked.

Otherwise physically attaching a file is only valid in e-mail and other messaging services...

What happens when you step through the code ?

Hi fil2 contains the list of all the files.If i use listBox.Items.Add(fil2.Tostring()); it dis[plays the list of files in the listbox.But i want to display in the listview control.I have added column headers to the listview control.I want to display the names of the files under the header named "Servers".

foreach (String filename in files)
                                        {
                                            FileInfo fil2 = new FileInfo(filename);
                                            foreach (String sfil in fil2)
                                            {
                                                listView1.Items.Add(sfil);
                                                
                                            }

This gives me name of only the last file in that folder.

To add an item in ListView control you should supply the listitem.

This may work....
Modify your code like this and try....

foreach (String filename in files)
{
  FileInfo fil2 = new FileInfo(filename);
  
  foreach (String sfil in fil2)
  {
    ListViewItem listitem = new ListViewItem();
    listitem.SubItems.Add(sfil);
    listView1.Items.Add(listitem);
  }
}

Have a Happy Coding.....

Hi Thanks for the reply.i tried with this, but it shows me an error for the line

foreach (String sfil in fil2)

saying that the foreach cannot be applied to FileInfo.So i tried without the foreach

foreach (String filename in files)
                                       {
                                           FileInfo fil2 = new FileInfo(filename);
                                           lvi = new ListViewItem();
                                           lvi.Text = filename.ToString();
                                           listView1.Items.Add(lvi);}

In any way im getting only the last file in the folder.The following gets the files from the folder.I do not know how to display it in the listview control.

DirectoryInfo di = new DirectoryInfo(foldername);
                                    if (di.Exists)
                                    {
                                        String[] files;
                                        files = Directory.GetFiles(foldername);

Hi mrithula....

I have personally checked the below code and its working properly in my machine....

DirectoryInfo di = new DirectoryInfo(fbd.SelectedPath);
 if (di.Exists)
 {
   String[] files;
   files = Directory.GetFiles(fbd.SelectedPath);
   foreach (string file in files)
   {
     ListViewItem lvi = new ListViewItem();
     lvi.Text = file;
     lvi.ImageIndex = 0;
     listView1.Items.Add(lvi);
   }
 }

If it shows any error let me know....

Hi Thank you.Im getting it right now

Hi I am able to list all the exe files in listView control.If the 1st exe has started i want to set the status of the ist sub item to "Started"

foreach(Process pr in proclist)
           {
               String proname = pr.ProcessName;
               //listBox4.Items.Add(proname);
               lvsi=new ListViewItem.ListViewSubItem();
               lvsi.Text="Started...";
               lvi.SubItems.Add(lvsi);
           }

           int b = proclist.Count;
           listBox4.Items.Add(b.ToString());

proclist contains the list of all exe that have started.Currently there is only 1 exe(i.e the 1st one in the listview control).I want to display started to the 1st subitem.The above code that im using displays "started" as the last sub item.How can i change this?

when you add the subitem for an item in the listview the sequence starts always from left to right.
Not sure what mistake you are doing.

But you can try this...

To add the subitem, for the STATUS column header, use the same item object which you used to add to the listview control.

i.e.
if item 1 in the Server header is added by using lvi then,

ListviewItem lvi = new ListViewItem();
lvi.SubItem.Add("Started");
ListView.Items.Add(lvi);

This should work i believe.

Have a Happy Coding.....

Hi I tried with this but it displays "Started.." as a subitem for the last item in listview control.I used this code in the button click event of "Start" button which starts the exe file.

okay.....

then you may try the SubItem index property, to directly specify which subitem to modify.

for example,

if you want to change the status of the first server Item, then

ServerItem1.SubItems[1].text = "Started";

Have a Happy Coding.....

Hi I tried with this.Is this right?Nothing gets displayed when the exe starts.

int g = lvi.Index;

               lvi = new ListViewItem();

               if (g == 1)
                   lvi.SubItems[1].Text = "Started..";

               listView1.Items.Add(lvi);

no this will not work. because you are creating a new lvi.

Have a Happy Coding.....

Hi Can you please tell why it adds "started.." as a sub item for last item?Why does it not display it as the sub item for the 1st item?

Not sure what's the problem....

but instead of this

foreach(Process pr in proclist)
            {
                String proname = pr.ProcessName;
                //listBox4.Items.Add(proname);
                lvsi=new ListViewItem.ListViewSubItem();
                lvsi.Text="Started...";
                lvi.SubItems.Add(lvsi);
            }

try this

foreach(Process pr in proclist)
{
String proname = pr.ProcessName;
//listBox4.Items.Add(proname);
lvi.SubItems[1].Text = "started";

}

Make it sure that you are executing this code after adding the item to the list view... otherwise you may get an exception in the blocked line.

Have a Happy Coding.....

Hi It tells that 1 is not valid argument index.

how many column headers you have???

because the subitems index always starts from 0.

can you post the entire code block of the listcontrol??? if possible...
