You can choose a variety of ways to present lists in your application:
-
ListBoxes and PictureListBoxes display available choices that can be used for invoking an action or viewing and displaying data.
-
DropDownListBoxes and DropDownPictureListBoxes also display available choices to the user. However, you can make them editable to the user. DropDownListBoxes are text-only lists; DropDownPictureListBoxes display a picture associated with each item.
-
ListView controls present lists in a combination of graphics and text. You can allow the user to add, delete, edit, and rearrange ListView items, or you can use them to invoke an action.
TreeView controls
TreeView controls also combine graphics and text in lists. The difference is that TreeView controls show the hierarchical relationship among the TreeView items. As with ListView controls, you can allow the user to add, delete, edit, and rearrange TreeView items. You can also use them to invoke actions.
