Remarks

The ListView control raises the ItemEditing event when an Edit button is clicked, but before the ListView item enters edit mode. (An Edit button is a button whose CommandName property set to "Edit".) This enables you to provide an event-handling method that performs a custom routine whenever this event occurs, such as canceling the edit operation.

A ListViewEditEventArgs object is passed to the event-handling method. This object enables you to determine the index of the item that is being edited, and to indicate that the edit operation should be canceled. To cancel the edit operation, set the Cancel property of the ListViewEditEventArgs object to true.

For a list of initial property values for an instance of ListViewEditEventArgs, see the ListViewEditEventArgs constructor.

Constructors

ListViewEditEventArgs(Int32)

Initializes a new instance of the ListViewEditEventArgs class.

Properties

Cancel	Gets or sets a value indicating whether the event should be canceled. (Inherited from CancelEventArgs)
NewEditIndex	Gets the index of the item that is being edited.

Methods

Equals(Object)	Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object. (Inherited from Object)
GetHashCode()	Serves as the default hash function. (Inherited from Object)
GetType()	Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object)
MemberwiseClone()	Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object)
ToString()	Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object)
