How to color the background of a row in list control

[12Code]

I have a dialog which consists of 2 list control items set in report view. I wish to color a row in one of the list control. How can i do it? I can do it, if the app is Single Doc with base class CListView, by using OnCustomDraw. But how can i implement OnCustomDraw in one of the List Control from dialog?

Derive a class from the list control (CListCtrl) and implement the custom draw functionality in that. Then, in the dialog class, use your class derived from the list control instead of CListCtrl when declaring the list control variables. The way MFC works, your derived class should sub-class the list controls and you should get your row colouring functionality.

Java, Basic, who cares - it's all a bunch of tree-hugging hippy cr*p
