Incorrect selection of items in a ListView while using the SHIFT Key

Hi,

I have a DLL that will be loaded by imaging applications. The DLL opens a list view with multiple items. But I observed that the selection of items in this listview on using the SHIFT key is incorrect. But on few applications it appeared to work fine.
Using the explorer tools I identified that the difference was with the version of ComCtl32 DLL loaded. Some applications load both the new and older version of this DLL. On such apps my listview selection problem is seen.
I tried adding a manifest file and even adding the #pragma to my source. I also tried generating an external manifest file and placing it in the directory where my DLL resides. None of them seem to work.

Development tool : Visual studio 2010. Please let me know if I'm missing something.

Thanks!

Please let me know if I'm missing something.
Quite a few details. You have not explained what you mean by the result being incorrect. You have not told us which version (of Windows) works, and which does not. You also do not explain how the applications access your dll, and why they may load multiple versions of it.
