Border Width of a Control

[Lost User]

If you have a CListCtrl, and you set the option to have a border (either through the GUI interface or WM_BORDER option), how do you find the border width ?

I haven't tried, but I think you can calculate the it by copmuting the difference in width between GetWindowRect and GetClientRect (and dividing by two.) Joaquín M López Muñoz Telefónica, Investigación y Desarrollo

Look at ::GetSystemMetrics() in MSDN... int xBorder = GetSystemMetrics(SM_CXBORDER); int yBorder = GetSystemMetrics(SM_CYBORDER);
