'Usage
Dim instance As SPViewStyleCollection
public class SPViewStyleCollection : SPBaseCollection
Remarks
View styles are defined in \\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\12\TEMPLATE\GLOBAL\XML\VWSTYLES.XML.
Use the ViewStyles property of the SPWeb class to return the collection of view styles for a site. Use an indexer to return a single view style from the collection. For example, if the collection is assigned to a variable named collViewStyles, use collViewStyles[index] in C#, or collViewStyles(index) in Visual Basic, where index is the index number of the view style in the collection.
Examples
The following code example applies a Boxed style (13) to a view for a list in the specified site.
Dim siteCollection As SPSite = SPControl.GetContextSite(Context)
Dim site As SPWeb = siteCollection.AllWebs("Site_Name")
Dim vwStyles As SPViewStyleCollection = site.ViewStyles
Dim vwStyle As SPViewStyle = vwStyles.StyleByID(13)
Dim list As SPList = site.Lists("List_Name")
Dim view As SPView = list.Views("View_Name")
view.ApplyStyle(vwStyle)
view.Update()
SPSite oSiteCollection = SPContext.Current.Site;
using(SPWeb oWebsite = oSiteCollection.AllWebs["Website_Name"])
{
SPViewStyleCollection collViewStyles = oWebsite.ViewStyles;
SPViewStyle oViewStyle = collViewStyles.StyleByID(13);
SPList oList = oWebsite.Lists["List_Name"];
SPView oView = oList.Views["View_Name"];
oView.ApplyStyle(oViewStyle);
oView.Update();
}
}
