ListView component

[Teemu]

I have problems with ListView-control because of its GridLines bug in
Windows XP.

I created a function that creates a bitmap which presents those grid lines.
Then I set this image to ListView's BackgroundImage. The grid line bug is
fixed now but this creates an another problem.

While having a background image, list view won't show list item's backcolor
if it's set.

For example:

Listview1.BackgroundImage=MyBitmap
Listview1.Items(2).Backcolor=Colors.Red

That red background won't be seen. Any ideas how to show that backcolor and
have background image at the same time?

Thanks for your answer,
Teemu

Same prob. How about using white and teal-blue as background for odd and
even to get your lined effect and then mix red with white or teal color for
2 shades of red.

Blue
White +red
Blue +red
White
