Hi Richard I can do this in ListView control try this : public WinForm() { InitializeComponent(); listView1.View = View.List; addValid(); addInvalid(); } private void addValid() { for (int i = 0; i { listView1.Items.Add(Valid + i.ToString()); listView1.Items[i].ForeColor= Color.Blue; } } private void addInvalid() { for (int i = 3; i { listView1.Items.Add(Invalid  + i.ToString()); listView1.Items[i].ForeColor= Color.Red; } }
