CListBox::SetItemData equivalent?
-
Does SetItemData put hidden information in ? I don't recall seeing anything similar to that. I know for items that are visible you need to create a new instance of an item or subitem and then pass it in, but I don't think it has a data field.

Blast!!! Say I have a listbox with the following stuff apple orange grapes orange banana apple Notice how apple and orange appear twice. Now to internally differentiate these items [because they are the textual casts of a more complex actual object] I'd need to associate an id with each. apple [ap1] orange [or1] grapes [grp] orange [or45] banana [bnna] apple [ap6] See? How do I do that??? Regards Nish p.s. The intention is this. If the guy has selected an item that appears multiple times, I should be able to get the id associated with it!

Nishant S wrote: This list box issue is frustrating me Admittedly, i know nothing about anything, but - can't you just create a class containing two data items, add a toString member, & be done with it? Should still be fairly concise i should think. Or am i missing the point.

I dunno, given that the Win32 boxes do it, you'd think it was possible. If not, could you put the data in another column and hide it, by forcing it to be 0 pixels wide ? I'll be home in two hours, if there's no other answer by then, I can check in Petzold. Christian We're just observing the seasonal migration from VB to VC.

I am guessing that you do eat a lot of fish, eh Shog? Nothing else could explain this :-) By the way I have added the missing "are" in my post, but by the time I had done that you had already replied and quoted the sentence. I usually never correct typo errors, this time I did it, just in case MSDN or Dundas decides to use you as their model ;-) Nish

What's the .NET equivalent of
CListBox::SetItemData? I didn't find anything analogous in theListBoxclass :-( Nish

The ListBox control can contain any Object derived class, not simply strings. To display a value, ListBox calls the Object::ToString(), which you can override on your own types. This means that you can insert items that contain more than 32bits of "Item Data". Note for ListViews, use the ListItem "Tag" property to store user-information (of any type).
