 Posted: Fri Sep 15, 2006 8:57 am Post subject: Retrieve ListBox items |
 |
|
I am currently trying to retrieve a certain item in a listbox by
passing in the window handle and the string value of the item I am
looking for. I know that once I have the window handle of the listbox
I can retrieve the item where it matches the string value I passed in
to the method. Once I retrieve the correct item I want to be able to
highlight that item, but the problem is that I do not know the correct
syntax for this to happen. The code is not compiling correctly. If
someone could please help me out with this simple task I would
appreciate it.
void CListBoxTest::TestHighLight( HWnd hwnd, string value )
{
int itemValue = SendMessage( hwnd, LB_FINDSTRINGEXACT, -1, value );
//To add the code here for highlighting listbox item once the index
is found
} |

value.c_str()
Even if your next question has a C++ answer, you will do much better to
learn more C++ before coding a hard library like the Win32 SDK, and you
ought to post your next question to a newsgroup with 'microsoft' in its
name.
This newsgroup is only qualified to discuss the raw C++ language itself, not
the minutia of all its libraries.
