Hi,

I am working on using the markup function on some data held in a list view.
I have the following code:

    lstTx.AddItem "<Border BorderThickness='2' BorderBrush='Green' Margin='0, 2, 0, 2' Padding='3'><StackPanel Orientation='Horizontal'>" & _
    "<Image Source='201'/>" & _
    "<Grid><Grid.ColumnDefinitions><ColumnDefinition Width='Auto'/><ColumnDefinition Width='*'/></Grid.ColumnDefinitions>" & _
    "<Grid.RowDefinitions><RowDefinition/><RowDefinition/></Grid.RowDefinitions>" & _
    "<TextBlock TextAlignment='Right' FontWeight='Bold' Foreground='Navy' Text='Device:'/>" & _
    "<TextBlock TextAlignment='Right' Grid.Row='1' FontWeight='Bold' Foreground='Navy' Text=' IP Address:'/>" & _
    "<TextBlock Margin='6, 0, 0, 0' Grid.Column='1' Text='UnitName'/>" & _
    "<TextBlock Margin='6, 0, 0, 0' Grid.Column='1' Grid.Row='1' Text='IPAddress'/>" & _
    "</Grid></StackPanel></Border>"

The items in red are showing up in my list view just as text however I need to display text that comes from a string. I am extracting a value from a database and storing that in a string.

How can I display the text from a string using markup in list view?

Please help.

Thx

Something like this assuming UnitName is the vaiable...

"<TextBlock Margin='6, 0, 0, 0' Grid.Column='1' Text='" & UnitName &"'/>" & _

Also, you will want to encode characters that will break your markup rendering when trying to display text values from variable:
