How to define and populate a multi-column List?

[RichardK]

I have been puzzling over the manual without success - I am trying to create and populate a list with 3 columns (or do I need to define an array?) (and then extract data therefrom)

My experience is with VBA / Excel, so all my previous arrays have been worksheets!

If someone could point me in the right direction I would be grateful, RichardK

In a ListView you have two labels max per item.
So you would need to use a ScrollView which is much more universal.
You find lots of examples in ScrollView examples summary.

Best regards.

Thanks Klaus,

My question was badly worded - I think that:

Is what I was looking for. I will keep trying - Richard

You should explain more in detail what exactly you want to do and for what purpose.
Do you want a List or a multidimensional Array.
Without knowing more precicely what you want to do it's difficult (even impossible) to give you a concrete advice.

Best regards.

File attached and clearer (I hope) explanation below

I am attempting to shuffle a pack of cards, and diplay them one-at-a-time in random order, Picture + label.

1) I am using Erel's shuffle algorithm (which I have failed to get to work properly) - ?.

2) The cards display, (but not in Random order), but I have not succeeded in displaying the labels - ?

Sorry to be a nuisance, Richard

I think this replacement would do it

j = Rnd(0, arr.Length)

Attached a modified version.
The shuffle algorithm works.

Best regards.

As I recall, someone suggested a sort algorithm than the one I was originally using.
