use this code

C#

public static DialogResult ShowMe(string title, string promptText, ref string value)
       {
           //'value' is to return Some value
           Form form = new Form();
           Label label = new Label();
           ListView lv = new ListView();

           System.Windows.Forms.Button buttonOk = new System.Windows.Forms.Button();
           System.Windows.Forms.Button buttonCancel = new System.Windows.Forms.Button();

           form.Text = title;
           label.Text = "Some heading";

           buttonOk.Text = "OK";
           buttonCancel.Text = "Cancel";
           buttonOk.DialogResult = DialogResult.OK;
           buttonCancel.DialogResult = DialogResult.Cancel;

           label.SetBounds(9, 20, 372, 13);
           lv.SetBounds(9, 40, 280, 66);


           buttonOk.SetBounds(228, 110, 75, 23);
           buttonCancel.SetBounds(309, 110, 75, 23);

           label.AutoSize = true;

           buttonOk.Anchor = AnchorStyles.Bottom | AnchorStyles.Right;
           buttonCancel.Anchor = AnchorStyles.Bottom | AnchorStyles.Right;

           form.ClientSize = new Size(396, 150);
           form.Controls.AddRange(new Control[] { label,lv,  buttonOk, buttonCancel });
           form.ClientSize = new Size(Math.Max(300, label.Right + 10), form.ClientSize.Height);
           form.FormBorderStyle = FormBorderStyle.FixedDialog;
           form.StartPosition = FormStartPosition.CenterScreen;
           form.MinimizeBox = false;
           form.MaximizeBox = false;
           form.AcceptButton = buttonOk;
           form.CancelButton = buttonCancel;

           DialogResult dialogResult = form.ShowDialog();
           return dialogResult;
       }

Solution 1

There isn't a "out of the box" solution for this, but you can do it easy.

Create a form, add a ListView.
On your main form show a Dialog, something like this:

using (var f = new FormList(id))
{
    if (f.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.OK)
    {
        MessageBox.Show(f.Result);
    }
}
