How do you disable CheckBoxes in ListView?

enter image description here

If you type a word on the "txtProdBarcode" section, the lists will come at the bottom like the picture. The list sections name is "lvBase" which is aListView.

Then when you type a word on the "searchText" section, the checkboxes on the "lvBase" section shouldn't be clickable. I don't want to remove the checkboxes, but want to prevent them from being checked.

I've tried my best but can't get the answer.

private void txtProdBarcode_TextChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    string searchText = txtProdBarcode.Text.ToUpper().Trim();

    if (searchText.Length > 0)
    {                  
        lvBase.CheckBoxes = false;                          
    }
    else
    {
        lvBase.CheckBoxes = true;
    }

This code deletes the checkboxes on the "lvBase" section.

But I want only the checkboxes to be disabled.

Can you guys help me to solve this problem?

To prevent checking items of ListView, you can handle ItemCheck event:

bool preventCheck = true;
private void listView1_ItemCheck(object sender, ItemCheckEventArgs e)
{
    if (preventCheck)  // for example: !string.IsNullOrEmpty(textBox1.Text)
        e.NewValue = e.CurrentValue;
}
