How to hide a column in a ListView control?

Question

How can I hide a column in a ListView control, without setting the column Width property to 0?

Also, can I lock the Width of a column?

Answer 1

I was looking for a way to do the same thing which brought me here.

I'm not sure if there is a better way of doing it, so I use following workaround.

If you need to add a value to a Listview Item but don't want to show it, you can use a subitem index greater than the total column count. This way, even though the value exists it is not visible to the user.
