Hi all,

I have a listview box which is populated from a List<T> collection. The
items in this collection are generated from a user filled out form.
The items in the listview have the same index as the ones in List<T>, so I
have an event which loops through the ListView, and if selected = true, the
data from the corresponding List<T> is used to populate a form - so in
effect creating an edit function. On Editing the data, the ListView is
regenerated, reading it's needed data from List<T> items (effectively
updating itself).
Is there any easier way to do this? It works fine, but I want to add search
capabilities to the ListView items, which if sorted, would no longer share
the same index as the List<T> items. One solution is to resort List<T>
(perhaps having a TempList<T>) so as to show only specific items and ensure
List<T> and ListView indexes still match. Or should I create a int field of
the List<T> items which has a permanent unique index and use this?

What is usually done in such circumstances?
Any help would be appreciated,

Chris
