[perl-win32-gui-hackers] RE: ListView Columns - Text Limit is 1023 Bytes

[Eric H. <eh...@co...>]

 The options I have thought of to correct my application are:

=20

1)       load the database data memo fields to an associative array at
the same time I load the data to the ListView.

And then populate the maintenance screen's multiline textfields (to hold
the memo fields) in the ListView

ItemClick event. =20

2)       In the ListView ItemClick event, do a database lookup to fetch
the memo fields at that time instead of

      Holding all record memo fields in an associative array loaded when
the ListView is loaded.

=20

I chose number 2.  The slight drawback to this method is the slight
delay when arrowing or scrolling up/down

Within the ListView since the ItemClick event has to do a database
lookup.  The slight delay really is not

Noticeable but could potentially be if network traffic or database
traffic is high.=20
