I get the following error:

Error occurred on line: 546 (HomePage)

The line of code that creates the error:

    pnlHWlist.AddView(lvHomework, 0, 0, pnlHWlist.width, pnlHWlist.height)

Hi,
if I'm not wrong, that means that lvHomework is a child of a different item, so it dictates to remove it from its parent before adding it to pnlHWlist.

You can remove it from the parent with:

lvHomework.RemoveView
