I have noticed that Listview does not have a replace option, so...
How can one replace a value in the last row, 10th column in a listview with a new value?

Thanks
 
Visual Basic: 
Dim itmX As ListViewItem
' Get the last item into itmX
itmX = ListView1.Items(ListView1.Items.Count - 1)
' Change column 10s text
itmX.SubItems(9).Text = "My replaced text"
' Put back into listview as last item
ListView1.Items(ListView1.Items.Count - 1) = itmX

Hope this helps

Thanks Andy,

Your code works fantastic!!!

I did notice that it did produce some screen flicker though.
Is there a way to postpone the screen refresh until the listview line is replaced? (or maybe its my old Video card)

Thanks

No its not flicker you can make it so no screen flick doesn't happen by the following code....

Visual Basic: 
        Dim itmX As ListViewItem
        ListView1.BeginUpdate()
        itmX = ListView1.Items(ListView1.Items.Count - 1)
        itmX.SubItems(9).Text = "BLUE"
        ListView1.Items(ListView1.Items.Count - 1) = itmX
        ListView1.EndUpdate()

give that a go

If it is possible, I have one more listview question.

I'd like to save the listview contents into a serialized array each time it is updated. Then, if needed through the mnuUndo, pop it back into the listview by deserializing the array with your update method...
