Dr Watson dump :-\

[will1383]

oh, Sorry guys, I was on a bug hunt (still). I totally forgot about the ITEMINFO struct. Here is my ITEMINFO Structure: typedef struct tagITEMINFO { CString strFileName; DWORD nFileSizeLow; FILETIME ftLastWriteTime; } ITEMINFO; The reason I am modifying the displayed file information is that I'm really displaying a single "file" for a group of files, and this required me to associate a different filename/filesize/filedate with the item in the item list. I suppose there was a different way to do it but this was all that came to mind the first time it was written. I tried the pDispInfo->item.pszText = (LPTSTR) (LPCTSTR) string; and declaring the string as static but I'm still having the same issues. Good ole' Dr. Watson. Same exact spot though. I wish I could figure out how to find the exact line from the Dr. Watson. Then I'd be able to narrow it down even more. Although I suspect you guys are right, it has something to do with the buffer size for the text string. Dan Willis

Ok now we are getting somewhere:). Show how you instantiate your ITEMINFO and how you assign it to lParam

Here's where I initialize the ITEMINFO. I do this for every item in the list that is to be shown in my ListView. // // Allocate a new ITEMINFO structure and initialize it with information // about the item. // ITEMINFO* pItem; try { pItem = new ITEMINFO; } catch (CMemoryException* e) { e->Delete (); return FALSE; } pItem->strFileName = fileName; pItem->nFileSizeLow = fileSize / 1024; // in KB pItem->ftLastWriteTime = fileAccessTime; // // Add the item to the list view. // LV_ITEM lvi; lvi.mask = LVIF_TEXT | LVIF_IMAGE | LVIF_PARAM; lvi.iItem = nIndex; lvi.iSubItem = 0; lvi.iImage = 0; lvi.pszText = LPSTR_TEXTCALLBACK; lvi.lParam = (LPARAM) pItem; if (GetListCtrl ().InsertItem (&lvi) == -1) return FALSE; // now add the file data text GetListCtrl().SetItemText(nIndex,3,(LPCSTR) fileDataType); Dan Willis

I think I may have found my problem. Gimme a couple of minutes :-D Dan Willis
