Change text of header of listCtrl
-
Hallo, Does anyone here know an easy way to change the text of the header of a listCtrl. Till now, I delete all columns and insert them with the new text again. But I think, there should be an easier way:) Thanks, Gerhard

Use
SetColumn. An Eg:LVCOLUMN lvCol = { 0 };
lvCol.mask = LVCF_TEXT;
lvCol.pszText = _T( "Nibu babu thomas" );// Change caption of first column
SetColumn( 0, &lvCol );

Thank's for the example - my text is stored in a CString. And with this it doesn't work (conversion to string doesn't help). But it works with a code like this:
char othertext[100]; sprintf(othertext, "%s", text); lvc.pszText = othertext;Am I crazy to do so????:~ -

Yes!! What about...
lvc.pszText = text;Either way text is a string right? Well if you have want to have strings that contain number then it's quite ok...sprintf( othertext, "Column number: %d", 1 );
lvc.pszText = othertext;

:omg::omg: Maybe my part of code was too short:confused: so I send the whole loop
LVCOLUMN lvc; CString titel; int i = 3; if (kstkaranz->wdfirst()) do { i++; titel = kstkaranz->wdgetkstnr() + "\n"; titel = titel + gettitel(0, kstkaranz->wdgetdatenart(), kstkaranz->wdgetvon(), kstkaranz->wdgetbis()); listCtrl.GetColumn(i, &lvc); char strbetrag[100]; sprintf(strbetrag, "%s", titel); lvc.pszText = strbetrag; listCtrl.SetColumn(i, &lvc); } while(kstkaranz->wdnext());where kstkaranz->wdgetkstnr = something like "6984" (number of a cost center) and the result of gettitle is something like " PLAN VALUES 2007-01-01 - 2007-02-28'. The whole result in titel is a CString (with numbers, of course, but handled as CString). Btw, it works fine and as there should be no difference, whatever the CString titel contains, I see no danger. But your posting made me consider ....?? Btw2: if I try "lvc.pszText = titel;" I get an error-message like (I try to translate): Binary operator: no operator defined who accepts a right-sided operator of type 'class CString' X| -- modified at 12:07 Friday 23rd February, 2007 -

I tried your code but now all my columns say "Nibu babu thomas" :omg: Just kidding ;P

But your code snippet made me say that. There is no point in sprintfING another string into another string. Since we already have a string it should be fine. You can assign a
CStringobject intolvc.pszText, do this...lvc.pszText = titlel.GetBuffer(0); // Dont' forget to call ReleaseBuffer titlel.ReleaseBuffer();

No problem, if I can say "nibu babu thomas - PLAN Values" and son on:laugh: But indead, his answer helped me very much. I don't know, why he said I'm wrong:confused: No problem, it works:-D

I said that from your code snippet. Look at the following example... char title1[100]; sprintf( title, "%s", aString ); What's the point in doing this!!!. Since aString is already a string why not directly assign that string in a proper way and also on the long run this could be a performance hit.

Hey, this seems to become a fine weekend. I'm just having breakfase (it's 8:00 here), want to read some newspapers in the internet - and the first when I look on my monitor is your message. Of course I tried suddenly and it works! Btw - with ' 'why I'm wrong ' I wanted to say 'why I made something wrong in my code'. My english:-O So, many thanks and have a nice weekend too

The reason is you could have used "title" directly instead of trasferring it into another string. Does such a copy satisfy any purpose. None AFAIK. It will be a performance hit. It's redundant that's why I said you are wrong. :)
