Hi Experts!

I have a owner draw list box. But when I try to disable the window using .enableWindow(true) it does not work.

What can I use?
 
Well, listbox.enableWindow(true) will [red]en[/red]able the window, not [red]dis[/red]able it. You need enableWindow(false) to disable it.

Please define "doesn't work." Do you mean you don't get the new callbacks to redraw the listbox items in a disabled state? If you have a visible scroll bar in the list box, is that disabled when the list box is disabled?
 
Oh sorry, i mean enablewindow(false) doesnt work.

Anyway, I found a solution, I used ODS_DISABLED to check if the item is disable or not, and then manually change the color of item to look like it really is disable. thanks for not ignoring my question. ;)
