Problem creating Favorites Webbrowser

[Jagadamba15]

Here's what I try to do: Create favorite Webbrowser. Well, it's very simple, save all work. But the problem is: I want to have starred as the Webbrowser.documenttitle Text and when you click on it, the Webbrowser.url.tostring

Here is my coding in several parts.

Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
        Dim item1 As New ListViewItem
        item1.Name = TextBox2.Text
        item1.Text = TextBox1.Text
        FrmBase.ListView1.Items.Add(item1)
        My.Settings.FavList.Add(TextBox2.Text)
        My.Settings.HistoricCombobox.Add(TextBox1.Text)
        Me.Close()
    End Sub
 
Private Sub ListView1_MouseUp(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) _
Handles ListView1.MouseUp
        Try
            Dim hti As ListViewHitTestInfo = ListView1.HitTest(e.Location)
            Dim url As String = hti.Item.Name
            CType(TabControl1.SelectedTab.Controls.Item(0), WebBrowser).Navigate(url)
 
For Each item As String In My.Settings.FavList
            For Each itemm As String In My.Settings.HistoricCombobox
                Dim item1 As New ListViewItem
                item1.Name = item.ToString
                item1.Text = itemm.ToString
                ListView1.Items.Add(item1)
            Next
        Next

As I see the code in My.Settings you created 2 object List (Of String). Be careful, the lists do not give you the guarantee to be indexed in order! In your code you do 2 loops so it is normal that you get dual values.

I advise instead to create a dictionary in My.Settings SortedDictonnary or if it should be in alphabetical order.

Then:
My.Settings.MyDictionary = new Dictionary (Of String, String)

Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
        Dim item1 As New ListViewItem
        item1.Name = TextBox2.Text
        item1.Text = TextBox1.Text
        FrmBase.ListView1.Items.Add(item1)
        My.Settings.MyDictionary.Add(TextBox2.Text,TextBox1.Text)
        Me.Close()
    End Sub
Private Sub ListView1_MouseUp(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.MouseEventArgs) _
Handles ListView1.MouseUp
        Try
            Dim hti As ListViewHitTestInfo = ListView1.HitTest(e.Location)
            Dim url As String = hti.Item.Name
            CType(TabControl1.SelectedTab.Controls.Item(0), WebBrowser).Navigate(url)
For Each item as KeyValuePair(Of string,string) in My.Settings.MyDictionary
dim item1 as New ListViewItem
item1.Name = item..Key
item1.Text = item.Value
ListView1.Items.add(item1)
Next

Thank you very much for taking care of my little problems,

But I do not really understand, I mean I am not able to go My.settings.dictionnary, the only I can take her:
System.Collections.Specialized.StringDictionary

With it, I can not code enlightens the beginning that we must enter:

My.Settings.MyDictionnary = new Dictionnary(Of string,string)

and when I enter my favorite I get an exception error: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. and highlights in yellow the code:

My.Settings.MyDictionnary.Add(TextBox2.Text, TextBox1.Text)

Thank you again, Little precision, I use VB 2008 Express Edition

And also, while we're at it, how to make the Listview items Add with the code below (I mean, take the item and its Item.name item.Text)

 For Each item As String In My.Settings.MyDictionnary 
 
            Dim item1 As New ListViewItem
            item1.Name = item.ToString
            item1.Text = item.ToString
            ListView1.Items.Add(item1)
        Next

I had not realized you had gone through the design mode settings.

The simplest is to create a variable in your application, ideally with a member of class type Dictionary (Of String,String) and then use this variable and no longer use My.Settings.

Or create a variable or a structure in my namespace, but there it becomes more complicated.

But if you want the listview to fill it from the start you must put it in your Form_Load and you need an external database to store your URL. (Either a database or txt file or XML)

my question is: How does a Hastable? I never work with such a variable. And what happens if someone delete the XML file? Its probably procure the disorder. Basically, would not there have a way with Variable Dictionary to my items? I mean, use the dictionary to variable Item.name and another variable to the dictionary item.Text

You can test this by simply creating a DataTable with 2 columns. You hit at the click of the button and then you save the XML with MyDatatable.WriteXML ("File Path"). And in the Form_Load you done conversely MyDataTable.ReadXML ("File Path")
