Another Listview sorting Question

[ZeroEffect]

I have been through the forum and I have seen many examples of listview sorting but In this one instance I can't get it to work.

 

I am loading a Listview from dbf file if the item found in the db meet the criteria it is added to the listview. No problem I get a full listview of items I wanted. Now the first column is time in the 24 hour format. So I want to sort the column accending, (00:00:00 ==> 24:59:59) I have a class for the listview Item comparer that looks like this.

Public Class ListViewItemComparer
   Implements IComparer

   Private col As Integer

   Public Sub New()
       col = 0
   End Sub

   Public Sub New(ByVal column As Integer)
       col = column
   End Sub

   Public Function Compare(ByVal x As Object, ByVal y As Object) As Integer _
      Implements IComparer.Compare
       On Error Resume Next
       Return [string].Compare(CType(x, ListViewItem).SubItems(col).Text, CType(y, ListViewItem).SubItems(col).Text)
   End Function
End Class

and is called like this

lv.ListViewItemSorter = New ListViewItemComparer(1)
lv.Sort()

 

but I still get a couple of entries out of wack. The first column will look like this.

 

00:00:00

01:00:00

12:00:00

20:00:00

17:00:00

23:00:00

 

This will stay this way even if I call the sort after the Listview is done being loaded. Also If I add a new item to the db it'll be placed at the bottom and not sorted. I have stepped through the code but nothing sticks out.

 

Any thoughts?

 

Thanks

Found it I am a Jack A#$. It helps if you sort the right column.

I also removed the On error line and changed it to a try catch end try.

 

All is good.

 

Thanks
