i do have items in the list view and i do have 1 item selected

Dim item As ListViewItem

Hi Lou,

After selecting 1 item in the list view that contained sub-items, I used =
the following code and this is working fine:

Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As =
System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Dim item As ListViewItem

item =3D Me.ListView1.SelectedItems(0)

Debug.WriteLine(item.SubItems(2).Text)

End Sub

Make sure that the sub-item of your main item also exists. Can you also =
post the error message that you are getting.

Thanks
