Resco AdvancedList control enables you to display a list of rows to the user that the user can select or deselect by clicking. This behavior is controled by the SelectionMode property. An AdvancedList control can provide single or multiple selections using the MultiSelect property. You can handle the RowSelect event to do some additional processing when the row is selected or deselected. You can also set the SelectedRow or get the array of the SelectedRows. Or you can just use the EnsureVisible function, to scroll the control to desired row.
The AdvancedList displays each Row in the DataRows collection with defined RowTemplate which depends on whether the Row is selected or not. All the templates are stored in the Templates collection and provides rich user interface experience, using various types of Cells to display data. You can handle the CellClick event to give response when the user clicked the cell. Or you can use the LinkCell and handle the LinkClick event for similar user experience.
The control can also display HeaderRow which is not scrolled away, if the ShowHeader property is set to true. With the GridLines and GridColor properties you can control, you can control if there the gridlines between rows are displayed and their color. The overall look of control can be tuned with the Border and BackColor properties.
You can use the built-in DbConnector to easily load the data from SqlCe or other database, or you can provide your own DataConnector. When adding the data rows, you can handle the ValidateData event for more customization. When manualy loading the data or doing more operations with the AdvancedList it is recomended to use the BeginInit and EndInit methods.
The control is specially designed for Compact Framework and optimized for designing in visual designer. For an examples of usage see the
