Help, what list control to choose ?

May 8 2012 8:18 AM
I'm pressed for tine, new to C# and need to select a list control to use.

I need to select items (single or multiple) from a scrolling list (vertical and horisontal scroll). Selected item should be highlighted, one click to select, click again to deselect. The items to select from will be simple strings, List is permanently open, no dropdowns. Readonly, just click to choose.

And thats all, no fancier than that.

I never used a list control and dread having to read up on every one. Right now, I don't even know their names. I believe both 'ListView' and 'ListBox' can do this but I think ListBox is simpler. Any other list controls that can do this ? The simpler the better.
