    Vertical column in ListView

    It's possible to create a ListView with a vertical left-aligned column, like the figure below, with CreateWindowEx and the class WC_LISTVIEW?

    I don't think so. There's no datagrid in the common controls library..
    I think you'll have to use a 3rd party datagrid control..

    That contol is a header control, and for this instance you would need to have two. If you can get the CCS_VERT & CCS_LEFT properties todo what they are meant to do (or what they logically should do) then there is your answer. If it is possible its probably harder than you think, and lining the header controls up would probably be a nightmare.
    Then again, excel did it...
    long time no C; //seige
    You miss 100% of the people you don't C;
    Code:
    if (language != LANG_C && language != LANG_CPP)
        drown(language);

    Of course there are plenty of Win32 native grid controls !
    I use them in C since... 1995.
    Ther is nothing to do, except displaying Row Header (and it's not at all a Header control !)

    What did he mean by 3rd party lol? Any third party library still uses Win32!

    I meant that i didn't know there were controls with vertical columns, and that i thought you would have to create your own control, or use one that someone else has created.
