protected void PreferredCheckBox_CheckedChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
  // Gets the CheckBox object that fired the event.
  CheckBox chkBox = (CheckBox) sender;

  // Gets the item that contains the CheckBox object. 
  ListViewDataItem item = (ListViewDataItem) chkBox.Parent.Parent;
  
  // Update the database with the changes.
  VendorsListView.UpdateItem(item.DisplayIndex, false);
}

Protected Sub PreferredCheckBox_CheckedChanged(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) 

  ' Gets the CheckBox object that fired the event.
  Dim chkBox As CheckBox = CType(sender, CheckBox)
  
  ' Gets the item that contains the CheckBox object. 
  Dim item As ListViewDataItem = CType(chkBox.Parent.Parent, ListViewDataItem)
  
  ' Update the database with the changes.
  VendorsListView.UpdateItem(item.DisplayIndex, False)    

End Sub

Remarks

The DisplayIndex property corresponds to the current position of the item as displayed by the ListView control. Each item's DisplayIndex value reflects the order in which they were added to the control in that particular page of data. You can use the DisplayIndex property to retrieve a ListViewDataItem object in the Items collection.

Note

This property applies only to data items. It does not apply to insert items or empty items.
