Explorer detail view style control.

I need to create or use a control similar to in windows explorer using view->details (where there are rows of files and columns representing their properties) Is there a control or a control style to do this or does anyone know of any suitable activex controls? I need to be able to set each 'cell' indidually from within the program, like a table in a database, but it should behave more like a list box to the end user.

Thanks for any help

I don't know a lot about it, but I know the control is called a list view. It works similiar to a list box, but has the multiple columns. You can try msdn for more information.

For a list of files, no details, try a listbox and send it a LB_DIR msg.

To get the details will need a report style listview (allows multi columns). FindFirstFile(), CloseFind() ect.

There is code posted here to do most of this, in both WIN32 API and MFC, if you search.

Thanks for the help, I dont actually need to display files, it's rows in a database, I was just using explorer as an example, but I'll look into listview now.
