This is a problem I've noticed before, but I would like to fix it this time if I can. I have a CListBox used as a logger, so after adding a string I select the bottom item so it will autoscroll down. On my WinXP box SetCaretIndex(GetCount() - 1); works fine, but on my Win98 it doesn't have any effect, so I tried SetCaretIndex(GetCount()) and it scrolls down until the item before the last. What the dillyo?
That's the only difference I know about...how many items you got in there?Quote:
from MSDN: LB_SETCARETINDEX
Microsoft Windows 95/Windows 98/Windows Millennium Edition (Windows Me) : The wParam parameter is limited to 16-bit values. This means list boxes cannot contain more than 32,767 items. Although the number of items is restricted, the total size in bytes of the items in a list box is limited only by available memory.

Definitely not that many. During my testing I just add enough lines so that the scrollbar appears and it is much fewer than 100 even... Geez, why do I always have problems that no one else ever does...
Holy crap.. What a flippin moron I am. I just looked at the link to msdn you pasted and read the lparam definition:
The default for SetCaretIndex() is TRUE and I assumed that meant it made it fully visible but apparently I should stop assuming things. Well at least I've found the answer... Thanks, as usual, codeplug.Quote:
lParam
If this value is FALSE, the item is scrolled until it is fully visible; if it is TRUE, the item is scrolled until it is at least partially visible.
