Number of columns in ListControl

Hi,

What is the proper method to use way to set the number of columns in a list control. I inserted two columns and would like them to be the same width in the list control.


This is what I have so far. Obviously I want to find the width of the list control and divide it by the number of columns.

void CBirthView::OnInitialUpdate()
{
CFormView::OnInitialUpdate();
GetParentFrame()->RecalcLayout();
ResizeParentToFit();

CString FirstName = "First Name";
CString LastName = "Last Name";


m_lcBirth.InsertColumn
( 0,FirstName,LVCFMT_CENTER,100 ,-1);
m_lcBirth.InsertColumn
(1,LastName,LVCFMT_CENTER, 100,-1);

}

Use code tags when posting code.

To get the width of the list control's client area:

Code:

---

CRect r;
m_lcBirth.GetClientRect(r);
int listWidth = r.Width();

---

Hi gg,

Thanks for the help. I tried using a RECT instead of CRect. Your suggestion is sure easier.
