Multi-column listbox

[timmay3141]

I'm trying to use a list box with multiple columns. If you have an app, bring up the ClassWizard, and go to the Member Variables tab, you'll see what I basically want. It's got a listbox with "Control IDs" on the left, "Type" in the middle, "Member" on the right. I tried using list controls with the "Report" style, but there was some stuff I didn't like about it. I checked the multi-column tab on the resource editor, but I still couldn't figure out how to add multiple columns, and the MSDN documentation didn't help much. How can I use multiple columns?

Now, what is wrong with list ctrls, eh?

The multicolumn list box is kind of crude, but if you insist...check the CListBox::SetColumnWidth method

I decided to use list box because list controls in a Report style select only the first element when you click them, rather than selecting the entire row as the the box does in the ClassView. I found this to be very annoying; if there is a way to fix this I'd use list controls instead. Is there?

CListCtrl::SetExtendedStyle( LVS_EX_FULLROWSELECT);

Yep that's it, thanks. I look for this stuff in the documentation but I never seem to find it...I'll try looking harder next time. Sorry to bother you with a problem I could have solved on my own.
