Activating / Deselecting an Item in CListCtrl

[sankar]

Hi I have created a CListCtrl with the additional options as Hot Track Selection & OneClick activate. I have set the Hover time to 1 Second. Now, When I try to point to any item ( Hover around 1 second ) then, I create a CRichEditCtrl on the fly on some condition with some data on to it. Now, whenever I change to focus to any other item and the required condition is not satisfied , it waits 1 second to destroy the earlier editbox . I would like to remove the display of this editbox as soon as i move the mouse to some other item. Which Event should I call implement to do this?? Also, when i move to anyother item it immediately changes to blue color. Pl. let me know which event gets fired here ? Thanx in advance regards Sankar

You could subclass CRichEditCtrl, an make it destroy its self when it the mouse moves way from it. Better yet you could create a single CMyOwnRichEditCtrl and have it hidden to begin with, then just show it at the proper time... it could then just hide its self when its no longer needed. -Ben --------- On the topic of code with no error handling -- It's not poor coding, it's "optimistic" ;)
