Can A ListViewItem Be Transparent?

[A_StClaire_]

hi,

I have ListViewItems that consist of nothing more than text. I am
setting their BackColor property to System.Drawing.Transparent.
however when they're loaded their BackColor appears to be white.

does anyone know why this is? would it have anything to do with the
fact that I'm dynamically creating and adding these ListViewItems in
code and not at design time?

thx

You can't.
I wrote my own.
