Detecting the appearance of a scrollbar in a listview

[Guest]

I have a listviw with the column default widths adjusted to fill the entire
width without any scroll bars. If there are enough items added to the list
that a vertical scroll bar is added I'd like to narrow the last column to
avoid the creation of an Hscroll as well. I'm not sure how to tell if the
addition of annother item will extend the length of the list beyond the
hieght of the control though.

Insert the following code after the code that you use to add or remove items
from the ListView.

if (this.listView1.Columns.Count > 0)
{
this.listView1.Columns[this.listView1.Columns.Count - 1].Width = -2;
}
