Try setting the LVS_EX_FULLROWSELECT style.

I migrate the project from vc6 to vs2008.
In vs2008 resource editor, the control looks nice, but when I run it, it is still the vc6 style?
Why?
Any way to show with the vs2008 style?

BTW: Is there any way to make control nicer with mfc9?

I'm working for a project that needs a better UI.
Thanks a lot.

Try adding this line to your stdafx.h file...

#pragma comment(linker,"/manifestdependency:\"type='win32' name='Microsoft.Windows.Common-Controls' version='6.0.0.0' processorArchitecture='x86' publicKeyToken='6595b64144ccf1df' language='*'\"")

More info here...[^]

Most, if not all the controls you are using are common controls
provided by the operating system. If you want them to look different,
you need to draw them yourself. Search for "custom draw" and "owner draw"
here and you'll find lots of examples.

In the IDE, I choose Help/Check for updates, but it doesn't detect vs2008 updates. BTW, I've installed vss2005, there is one update for vs2005.
I can't use bcg now.

You have to purchase an "upgrade" license to upgrade from VS2005 to VS2008. If not, the auto update is just providing you the bug updates for VS2005.

Why don't you use the MFC version of it instead ?

If you have a CWnd object, you can call its GetSafeHwnd() method. But chances are CWnd has a wrapper for the API that automatically reads the HWND.

You can handle the right mouse button click event by implementing the
WM_RBUTTONDOWN (or WM_RBUTTONUP) message handler in the inherited class.

The inherit class is open as child class of some CFormView ( doc/view style).
And when i try to get the event in the chinld class i see that the event is stoped in the CFormView class and not in the child class - this make the right click button to not happand event if i add the WM event.
