Windows XP Listboxes
-
Hi all, Does anybody know if it is possible for us mere mortals outside of Redmond to use the nifty grouping functions that the Windows Explorer list view has in Windows XP ? Any pointers to articles or tips on how to do it would be great. For those who don't know, I mean the grouping it does where it sorts the files under headings labeled "Tiny", "Small", "Medium" and "Large". What I would like to do is group action records under headings for "Overdue", "Due Today", "Due Tommorow" and "Due Next Week" etc. Thanks, Chris Ormerod

You mean multiple work areas? I personally have never messed around with this, and the comctl32.ocx listview doesn't allow you to use them, and nor does the .NET one. There is an ActiveX listview [^]that does, though, at vbAccelerator. If you're doing .NET, I guess you'll have to use the ActiveX control, or start looking for a .NET control that does multiple work areas.

"An eye for an eye only makes the whole world blind." - Mahatma GandhiYes that is exactly what I meant. Thank you very much. Although I haven't ever heard the term "Multiple Work Areas" in relation to a list box. And thank god it works in Visual FoxPro 7 as well! Chris.
