Introduction

This code provides a way for adding hyperlink function for the CListCtrl.

Background

When I searched a method to do this, on The Code Project, I noticed that most of the available code provided the function, but not perfectly. When the cursor moves on the cell of the grid, the hyperlink works, but not the words. So, I decided to write code to provide the function in a better way.

Using the code

The basic class is CReportCtrl which is derived from CListCtrl.

The usage of CReportCtrl is quite simple, just like this:

m_list.SetColumnHeader(_T("no, 40, 1; name, 290, 1; link, 70, 1"));
m_list.SetGridLines(TRUE);
m_list.InsertItem( 0 , _T(""));
m_list.SetItemText(0, 0, 1);
m_list.SetItemText(0, 1, "website");
m_list.SetItemText(0, 2, "baidu");
m_list.SetItemURL(0, 2,"www.baidu.com","search website - www.baidu.com");
m_list.InsertItem(1, _T(""));
m_list.SetItemText(1, 0, 1);
m_list.SetItemText(1, 1, "gg");
m_list.SetItemText(1, 2, "google");
m_list.SetItemURL(1, 2,"www.google.com", "search website - www.google.com");
