    [C] TreeView: setting a value for an item besides pszText

    salutations,

    the TreeView's item structure (TVITEM) allows us to set the text (pszText member) of the item that will be displayed in the tree. but how can we set another value for the item, besides its displayed text? so that we can, for example, have the application to display a text description of the item when the user clicks it in the TreeView.

    thank you in advance.

    I think that's what the lParam on the TVITEM is for
